the actual emdash symbol isn't really something you can do when texting from your phone

You actually can – just long-press the dash.

En-dash: –
Em-dash: —
Dot: •

You can also do proper ellipses by long-pressing the full stop…

And long-press most letters for more options: ă é ï ø û æ œ ç ñ $ £ €

Pretty much everything is in there.
