New emojis we need to get through the rest of 2020

Sometimes words can’t fully express our emotions. So for those times, we turn to emojis

Quick – go look at your most used emojis in your phone. Are they a little more… exasperated than those you were using this time last year? For example, the shocked face, shit and sobbing emojis are all high hitters on our phones. But sometimes the assigned emojis we have don’t fully express what we’re trying to say. For those instances, we decided to make our own. How do we send these to the emoji people to make them a reality? Somebody @ them, please.

Make sure you’re looking after yourself – here’s how to take care of your mental health right now.

Melbourne’s had a hard run of it during 2020, going up and down on this coronacoaster that has seen us confined to our homes to assist in protecting the community. While there are many upsides to being at home more (you can walk around pantless and wake up five minutes before work) there’s no denying that many of us are missing being out and about in Melbourne. Hence we’ve gotten creative/stir-crazy and devised a series of extremely low budget ways that you can recreate some of the “most Melbourne” experiences at home.
