Good news, mermaids and mermen: Your emoji are officially coming this year.。
Unicode, the organization that standardizes characters across devices, released its final list of 2017 emoji on Monday. There are 56 new emoji—69 if you count gender variations—and they're really all over the place. You'll be able to use new gender-neutral people, broccoli, mermaids, a Tyrannosaurus rex and a cricket with incredibly strong, beautiful legs:。

"Today is the first time we know that these are confirmed as the emojis for 2017," Jeremy Burge, the founder of Emojipedia and a member of Unicode's Emoji Subcommittee, said via direct message on Twitter. "No more🤞🤞🤞 that an emoji makes the cut. If it's in this list, it's final." 。

"I do not think the cricket's legs are sexy, for what it's worth," he added.。

Burge said some of the decisions were made to standardize emoji that exist in some form already. For example, Facebook has long offered that starry-eyed smiley in its News Feed as part of the "Feeling/Activity" feature:。
