  1. I haven't seen a built in picker for multi-character emojis, like the ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ (on OSX and Android)
  2. Sometimes the description I'm thinking of and the picker text doesn't line up, but I'm not sure if Google's picker will be that smart.

#1 is more ascii art than an emoji, but that could be a cool thing to integrate into a picker—customizable ascii text that you can search by keyword.

It exists on the iOS keyboard! (In Japanese) ( ^ω^ )

Although, it’s not customisable

HeliBoard on Android also offers the ascii emoticons

I think the windows emoji picker has ascii emojis but yeah it's missing from the others. If it's only a couple you can add them to a shortcut or pin them on your clipboard.
