@tcql@octodon.social @Gargron Hey, if emoj.li could get people trying to fling venture capital at it I'm not surprised it's happening to mastodon

Suggestion I'm not going to send to the unicode consortium because they'd beat me up for making them do more emoji bullshit instead of supporting actual languages:

SANDWICH EMOJI! New zero-width joiner, can be used in conjunction with 🍞 and any number of ingredients 🥓 🥗 🍅 in order to form an emojo of a sandwich with those fillings!

LB: LOT'S OF FLUFFY ELEPHANT FRIENDS!

@squirrel PAWS!

@squirrel

@squirrel oooohhh yes please

@Elizafox I was expecting anything other than naked pictures

It's like when anyone posts an image claiming to be "their ass" I always assume it's a picture of a donkey

@ajroach42 I'd probably put that more in the wrist-mounted gadget category than a watch but that's cool as hell

@ajroach42 digital watches are still good, casio actually still makes a bunch of their more retro designs, might be worth looking at those

@ajroach42 Oh yeah, the SNK809 has a clear caseback so you can see the movement from the back, that'll get you hooked if nothing else will seeing all those little gears moving around

@ajroach42 That's how it starts

I mostly buy new because vintage is a minefield

If you're after a mechanical watch then Seiko is a good start, the Seiko SNK809 is pretty much everyone's first automatic, they're great value and you can find them for £70-80

Or if you want a dive watch there's the SKX007 which is about 200 quid, fully rated for diving, and in my opinion looks pretty damn nice

@squirrel @bea I really want to see this

@squirrel

@squirrel okay, yeah, those are a fantastic addition
