The answer lies here:

(11:19:19) andreas: SQL ERROR [ mysqli ] Incorrect string value: '\xF0\x9F\x98\xAC I...' for column 'post_text' at row 1 [1366]
<SNIP>
(11:24:03) andreas: I took out the smileys, and then it posted. <SNIP>

Found it:

U+1F62C \xF0\x9F\x98\xAC GRIMACING FACE

And got the same error! :-D So removed the actual character. Go to this page and search for the code to see the face responsible for this thread: https://apps.timwhitlock.info/emoji/tables/unicode

To fix this I'd need to update the MySQL instance to use the utf8_mb4 character set instead of plain utf8. I will look into doing that at some point, but not anytime soon.
