Many of the people I do have online conversations with speak English as their first language. I kinda get by but you native speakers really underestimate how hard it is to express oneself in a foreign language. Concepts work differently, metaphors don't really translate, references you have used for decades don't make sense.

Like in German I am actually somewhat eloquent and texts I write don't look like a person with a head injury wrote them.

to be fair if i typed or wrote anything in another language besides English, it would have "severe cranial trauma" energy to it as well! 💔
