\"\"Thirty-seven new emojis were just approved, and they include: A biting lip, a melting face, a troll, a pregnant man, a disco ball, a face with a dotted outline, and a skull X-ray.<\/p>\n

They’ll be available on devices later this year.<\/p>\n

The finalized list also includes multiple skin tone variations of the handshake emoji. Due to some technical limitations, it was one of the few characters in previous releases you couldn\u2019t modify to represent different skin shades. The Unicode Consortium<\/a> and its volunteers spent the better part of two years working to fix that, and now they have.<\/p>\n
