I want to make a list of dominoes. My attempt is as follows.

Subsets[#, {2}]~Join~Thread[{#, #}] &@Range[0, 6]

{{0,1},{0,2},{0,3},{0,4},{0,5},{0,6},{1,2},{1,3},{1,4},{1,5},{1,6},{2,3},{2,4},{2,5},{2,6},{3,4},{3,5},{3,6},{4,5},{4,6},{5,6},{0,0},{1,1},{2,2},{3,3},{4,4},{5,5},{6,6}}

Is there any simpler way to generate dominoes?

$\begingroup$ 
0~Range~6~Subsets~{1, 2} /. {a_} :> {a, a}

{{0, 0}, {1, 1}, {2, 2}, {3, 3}, {4, 4}, {5, 5}, {6, 6}, 
 {0, 1}, {0, 2}, {0, 3}, {0, 4}, {0, 5}, {0, 6},
 {1, 2}, {1, 3}, {1, 4}, {1, 5}, {1, 6},
 {2, 3}, {2, 4}, {2, 5}, {2, 6},
 {3, 4}, {3, 5}, {3, 6}, 
 {4, 5}, {4, 6},
 {5, 6}}

Also

 0~Range~6~Tuples~2//Map@Sort//Union 

{{0, 0}, {0, 1}, {0, 2}, {0, 3}, {0, 4}, {0, 5}, {0, 6}, 
 {1, 1}, {1, 2}, {1, 3}, {1, 4}, {1, 5}, {1, 6}, 
 {2, 2}, {2, 3}, {2, 4}, {2, 5}, {2, 6}, 
 {3, 3}, {3, 4}, {3, 5}, {3, 6},
 {4, 4}, {4, 5}, {4, 6}, 
 {5, 5}, {5, 6}, 
 {6, 6}}

and

f = If[# <= #2, {##}, Nothing] &;
Join @@ Array[f, {7, 7}, 0]

same result

    $\begingroup$ As an alternative to //Map@Sort//Union you could also use //DeleteDuplicatesBy@Sort $\endgroup$

A Table-full way:

Flatten[Table[{j, i}, {i, 0, 6}, {j, 0, i}], 1] // Sort
