       No one panic: I just deleted the lemon emoji from the front of my name. I’d upped my lemon consumption in the last few months and today noticed that some of my back teeth have discolored. 😬 That’s enough lemons for me (except for special occasions)!In honor of the occasion, I will share the history of the lemon emoji on my name:Several years ago, broken, I moved back from Ireland to the US, and an aunt gave me a bag of lemons from her tree. I also made a fresh start on Twitter, and the only suitable profile pic in my phone at that moment was of the lemons. I suppose it symbolized joy from sourness. Fast-forward to Mastodon, where I added the lemon to my name as a kind of keepsake, bringing the best of the old to the new.I guess it’s time to let that go and keep only the Sun, the source of all lemons. Those old times are well and truly over. ☀️
