Can you reword this to make it sound smarter? not “smarter” but better for a tattoo because its just too plain for getting it on my body in this wording..ok its….This is your story, write it the way you want to read it. im having trouble rewording it :x

sometimes when things are in french they sound prettier/more sophisticated? i don’t know. Horacio Quiroga wrote “Si quieres expresar con exactitud esta circunstancia: “Desde el río soplaba el viento frío”, no hay en lengua humana más palabras que las apuntadas para expresarla. Una vez dueño de tus palabras, no te preocupes de observar si son entre sí consonantes o asonantes.” Which means if you want to say “A cold wind came off the river” and/or “This is your story, write it the way you want to read it,” then there’s really no point trying to find another way to say it.

Heyo. I just recently came out, and have found myself extremely isolated from the LGBTQIA community. I’m pretty shy, and still not really comfortable with myself yet. So, I have two questions for you: 1) what can I do to help myself feel more confident?

I think you should probably read these articles:

I keep waiting for you to ask the second question.

What do i say to someone who wants me to pick up there shift on thursday but take my friday? i want my friday and i need the money but i want to take there thursday. how do i tell them that ill take there shift + keep mine? :/

tell them that you’d love to take their thursday but that you can’t not work friday. the next time you need a switch, you promise they will be the very first person you come to, so they can get the hours back in the future.

Do I have to identify as bi, just because I hook up with dudes when I’m so drunk that I’m almost blacking out? I’m just scarred that I have to explain at school on monday, because I’m not into boys. I’m just into anything when I’m too drunk.

you don’t have to identify as anything you don’t want to. and/or you would not be the first person to identify as ‘drunk.’

i have to say the bi girls might take issue with this, and that i feel where they’re coming from

also, not to be your mom or whatever, but is it really that fun blacking out and hooking up with people you’re not into? that’s booze money you could be spending on poetry books
