Some pretty delightful (ab)use of ZWJ[0] to come up with unique new "characters":

* nail and gear flag [1]

* united federation of planets flag (star trek) [2]

* HAL 9000 [3]

Can I finally have my :dumpster-fire: emoji?

These are cool, it would be nice if there were also waving flag versions to match the styles of the leading emoji sets (eg Apple and Google). Most of them use some form of wavy flag:

I'd love the flag of Aboriginal Australia to be included too! I always think it's really disappointing that it isn't included anywhere, particularly if Star Trek is going to be represented. Any help?

I was going to suggest that there might be a copyright issue, but it looks like that may have changed last year.

Well, it is open source...

I think the 'any help' acknowledges that while also implying GP doesn't feel up to it.

Time to make a Pegasus emoji using racehorse+ZWJ+wing.
