How and when to use it

If you're texting someone about the person you're hooking them up with or the person you hooked up/are hooking up with, you can use 🪝 in those conversations. For example, "Guurrl. Guess who's hooking up tonight 🪝".
'Hook up' doesn't necessarily have to be in a sexual context. So, 🪝 can also be used in contexts of connecting two or more things or people too. For example, "I'll ask if he can hook you up with a good retailer 🪝".
You can also use 🪝 to describe a clingy person or situation - "It's like her life is at a standstill without me 🪝 ugh, why don't people have a life?".
Use 🪝 while suggesting freedom too! "HURRAY! I'm off the hook 🪝 she finally got a life! Oh, man. What are the odds of that, huh?".
If you're posting about something or texting someone about something you've been glued to; a Netflix series, a person, a book, anything, you can use 🪝 in those frameworks too. For instance, "Mannnnn! I've been hooked onto this INSANE horror series! 🪝 You must watch it".
