Call it a Tamemoji. It gets its own column on your profile page complete with its stats. It evolves digi-like across emojis sharing keywords. Not sure how we'd tier them though.

I actually wrote a discord bot in python that could have been very easily turned into something like this but, alas, that hard drive played a trick on me and it deleted everything i ever wrote

To be clear it was likely the programming equvilent of a vehicle made by orks in warhammer 40k where it shouldn't actually work but my will is the only thing running it

Speaking of which is there a better method in pythod than using Pickle for having variables stored outside the running program

Guy who has fucked with Python here for like a decade; as far as I'm aware, sadly no. Though if it's all the data is representable in text, consider JSONs.

Please let me know if the answer is actually yes though because pickle is a pain.
