Comment (by r-a-y):

 I think it has to do with the emoji you are using, imath.

 In your screenshot, you are using the "Thinker Face" emoji, which is
 Unicode-8:
 http://emojipedia.org/thinking-face/

 I just tried copying and pasting this emoji into the activity stream and
 also got the error message on desktop.

 According to the Docblock, `wp_encode_emoji()` only works for Unicode-7
 emojis.

 There is a ticket in core that might address this - #WP352923.  (Also see
 #WP33592.)
