Add a Water Well emoji to the Unicode Standard
The Issue
Some of humanity’s most essential phrases remain virtually inarticulable without a well emoji.
But...
This emoji doesn't yet exist.
We deserve the ability to say “Get 🪣 Well Soon.”
And that’s only the beginning. A well emoji would unlock countless expressions, including, but certainly not limited to, the following:
- Well, well, well…
- Wishing well
- literal water wells
- groundwater / clean-water projects
- “the well has run dry”
- “drawing from the well” as a metaphor
The technology exists. The need is clear. It is time for the well.
Here is an example of the water well emoji alongside some more familiar emojis. It fits right in!
