Stupid rant about writing in English

This morning I was replying to some nice comments on Midnight.pub and later to a post here:

https://text.eapl.mx/re-the-appeal-of-online

Ahhh!, I reviewed the text many times (maybe 20) and for each one, I found a typo or a grammar error (even from some text I copied and pasted, ha).

Sorry for any mistake, I don't try to be a perfectionist, for example when I'm chatting with North American friends, but then I see the text again and I regret not fixing it.

I'm 'struggling' between being correct, and writing (or even thinking) in a practical way. It's so easy for me writing, thinking and living in my mother language, that doing the same in English is kind of frustrating, but I think I can overcome it in a few years... Let's see!
