  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics
    • 3.1) NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
    • 3.2) Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
    • 3.3) Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

  1. over time this might affect our collective consciousness in regards to the purpose & function of the eggplant; and

  2. can we please just get a straightforward penis emoji already?? Half the human population has a penis attached to their bodies anyway, why are we still so prude about incorporating actual penises into mainstream vernacular & daily life?

I use the peach emoji to indicate pussy, and/or implied as any fleshy hole a man would want to penetrate.

That's what it meant back in the 90s. I was initially confused when people started using the emoji to mean butt.

The peach emoji was added in Unicode 6.0 ... which came out in 2010. How were you using it in the 1990s?

I'm not talking about emoji. I'm talking about, well, talk. Words.
