Godamnit Unicode [OC]

Godamnit Unicode, you just had to update it. Unicode 11.0. Also known as the worst fucking update so far. 🥵 Look at that fucking thing. I don’t understand why the Unicode Consortium would do this to us. As they said in the LA Times, “Our main focus is supporting the languages of the world, such as Chinese characters, Japanese characters, Cyrillic letters, and others. There are roughly 7,000 characters slated for release this year, and roughly 70 are emoji” (Cite: https://www.latimes.com/business/technology/la-fi-tn-emoji-q-and-a-20160125-htmlstory.html) You could have just uploaded the characters and letters UC. JUST THE CHARACTERS AND LETTERS! Or even alchemical symbols, I don’t care. Don’t shame any more code blocks by making their poor code points just mean 🥴, 🧿, and 🧫. And also, Microsoft, you fucking whore, did you have to make this shit visible? I liked it when it was just the unsupported icon, the gracious U+1F90D, or as you know them, 🤍.
