Stop scaring stray animals while eating!😾
Whenever i leave food outside for stray cats, i watch from the window to make sure they get to eat in peace. But almost every time some person walks by and try to touch or mess with them while eating. The poor cat gets scared and runs away without eating anything... it's frustrating tbh.
What annoys me the most is that some people only feed stray animals if they let them touch or pet them, like they're doing it for their own pleasure not to help.
Please people let them eat in peace, feeding an animal shouldn't come with conditions at least let them finish their food then you can play if they want to.

We might not be realizing this as english speakers but…
We are becoming the thing we feared the most…
I grew up in a poor neighborhood hearing bad comments about people speaking french, such as their arrogant or somehow use it a signal of cultural status… never made friends with french as language, hated it, ran into English who seemed to have open arms and prosperity with endless options to consume and enjoy and wide possibilities…
Many series, books, songs conversations later… I found myself unable to express myself in arabic or darija sometimes, especially when interacting with strangers sometimes I find out that the lingo has just vanished…
Suddenly started feeling as if I became the thing I hated in the past, only an english version 😂 and there is no escape from having a subset of commentators in the future that would indeed accuse people such as me of talking in english and using it a status symbol!
Except that this time, I think everyone is inclined to learn english, and there are way less chances of this happening cause unlike french, we didn’t get colonized by an english speaking country, nor is English language limited in terms of content and possibilities.

Aggressive Marrakesh
So my friend and I, both male europeans, just arrived in Marrakesh last night and were walking around the Medina today, without destination. We're even pretty tall and broad looking, not even wearing shorts, so never thought we'd have problems. Still, in broad daylight of 15h, around Av. Bab El Khemis (accoridng to google maps), had 3 guys come up to us and say the street we were walking on was "closed for prayer".
Never heard this before, but whatever. We turned a different way and kept walking. These guys came around and started doing the same and diverting us to some alley streets. Then at some point one of them starts saying that there's some bad people in this other street, to pass quietly and that he's there so it's ok. At this point I'm like ok, I'm just gonna walk straight out of this street.
After a while they tell us to go another way and then left to get to the main street (as if we didn't know from maps) and start demanding money. Literally going around us as we kept walking and demanding money for "the service".
Literally told them to fuck off and kept walking, but they followed us for a while still.
Wtf Marrakesh?? I've been to 40+ countries, including over 1 month in all of Tunisia, and never had this happen. Not even India had this type of pushing, but got it in Morocco in day 1.
Bit disappointed, honestly...

Programming, Architecture or Design? I'm LOST
(That's gonna be a long one, so bear with me. With that being said, I would really appreciate any genuine tip or advice. Thank you ❤️)
So let me introduce myself. I'm a digital artist, self-taught graphic/web designer, and a shitty web developer who wants to improve her skills in front end.
Lil backstory: Mor makhdit l bac 2021 I really wanted to study art(plan A). Unfortunately, I wasn't financially stable enough to study in Tétouan for 5 years, so I had to stay in my city. I applied for ENA(plan B) ms kont b3ida 3la seuil bl fasila w mat9bltch. Ma3lina, drt FST but dropped out (that school gave me severe depression). Moraha drt dev digital f ISTA cuz it was my only choice Since I wasn’t passionate about anything else, and after studying programming in FST, I wanted to give it a try and specialize in web dev.
(mind you, Kant 3ndi 15 fl bac, I could’ve done something better ms ma9lbtch w twjht mzyan)
Current situation: After diplôme d ISTA , I didn’t feel ready to apply for dev internships because I still lacked a lot of programming skills. So instead I decided to apply for design roles since I was kind of good at it. I ended up getting a paid internship, I bought a few design courses (UX/UI, social media design, Webflow...) so I can improve my skills, because I really like this field and I want to work in it alongside my front-end dev skills.
❗Problems:
> ENA 3ad tl9o tsjil, and I'm going to apply this year, since the only condition is to be under 25 years old. But let’s assume I get accepted , I don’t know if another 6 years of education in that field is worth it sara7a? W let's say I got accepted I wanna try the 1st year 7it dakchi li ki9raw kijini interesting ila 3jbatni ankml ms ila ma3jbatnich I'd be tooo scared to drop out w yt3awd nfs scenario d FST (I don't want to disappoint my parents sara7a)
> If I follow what I love graphic/web design, I don’t know if I’ll be able to find a job b chi salaire "mo7taram". I’m still working on my portfolio to look for online opportunities (If you have any advice on that, please share with me and others!)
> Finally, programming. As I said, I kinda suck at it. I’ve spent more time learning design and neglected it tbh. During this gap year, I was planning to save up to study licence privé , but spoiler alert: I couldn’t gather the full amount lol. Even if I continue in this domain, I'm really only interested in front-end w I hate backend. So I don’t know if I should just focus on front-end and learn Webflow, Framer, WordPress, etc, or if I should force myself to become a full-stack web dev?
Unrelated: If you want a custom digital portrait, DM me (support a broke artist 🎨)
I tried to break this down as much as I could, but if you still have questions, let me know 😄
I really need help!! I feel lost and have no one to ask. I hope I can find answers here 🙏🏻🩷
Thank you for your time.

Taxis are a curse to Morocco’s image
Context: I am a student, living in Morocco for almost two years now for studies, and i chosed Maghrib because of friends and accointances who praised the country’s education and expertise. I was aware of the country rich culture and landscapes, so i made my choice and loved almost everything.
Almost is the right word here cause there’s one remaining issue that still anger me: taxis behavior.
I took a taxi from work to home (5min drive and never went above 8dh), and prepared for the worst cause some drivers are reluctant at first to give back change (not everyone alhamdulillah) but today was special: the driver snatched a 20dh bill from my open wallet, while i was looking for change. He then told me that the ride was 16dh and gave back 4. Knowing that the fare counter was off since the beginning of the ride, i told him to give back my change, harassing him for a solid two minutes until he started to give me bit by bit. Thing is i was in a hurry, and in no mental condition to insult, so i let him take 2 dh and stormed off.
Maybe insulting or punching him would’ve been the solution, but i decided to let him go knowing that eventually, Allah (swt) would deal with him.
Today’s rant could’ve happened the first time i set foot here (the driver from airport went away with +100dh more the he should’ve have, but i was unaware of the usual fare) but now, i think it sad to see such a beautiful country and welcoming people have their image ruined by some individuals. But hey, every country has it flaws i guess.

Are we too clean ? 😭
Hi 👋
I (20F) live in Europe, and my best friend is French/Polish.
I asked her what she finds most annoying about Moroccans, and she said it's our "obsession with cleanliness and hygiene."
She actually complained that it's annoying and if we go any further we and our houses will be transparent. WTFFFF 😭😭😭😭
I was too shocked to even respond.
Do you think we really have a "cleanliness obsession" in Morocco or it’s just the Europeans that are dirty 👀

Help pleaseeee⬇️⬇️⬇️
Hey everyone,
This is my first time sharing something this personal. I’m a teenage boy, and I really need a serious solution. I don’t mean to complain — I just really need help.
I grew up in a toxic family. They were the first ones who bullied me and made me feel like my life wasn’t worth anything. I’ve experienced a lot of emotional pain because of them. On top of that, I was bullied all throughout my childhood for being overweight — not extremely, but enough to be targeted.
From age 9 to 11, I couldn’t even walk in the street without being harassed or sometimes physically attacked. I had no friends, I felt completely alone and scared most of the time. I started thinking about suicide at that age, and I even attempted it when I was 13. I’m still here, but it left a deep scar.
Now, even though I go to the gym, try to improve myself, and make efforts to connect with people, I still struggle. I feel like something is wrong with me. I’m always insecure and mentally exhausted. I just want to feel normal and stop carrying this pain.
If anyone here has been through something similar or knows how to truly heal, I’d be really grateful for your advice.
Thanks for reading.

Lost in a life that most of people want
I'm a 24-year-old accountant working in a company — I got this job by chance through a friend who referred me when I was unemployed. Now, after six months, I’ve realized that I don’t enjoy the role at all.
The job mainly involves spending over 12 hours a day on repetitive data entry and manipulation tasks using accounting software. I feel like there’s no room for growth or learning, and honestly, I’ve never felt motivated. I know I’m not working toward something for myself — my efforts go unnoticed, and the value I create benefits only the company, not me personally.
On the other hand, I’ve always been passionate about self-employment and freelancing. But so far, I haven’t taken any real action to pursue that path.
What’s frustrating is that after years of studying and earning a degree, I ended up in a job that doesn’t make me happy. When I talk to people around me, they say I’m lucky to have this position — that many others would love to be in my place. But I’m honestly willing to give it up if it means I can explore something I’m truly passionate about, rather than spend years stuck in a job just for a limited, predictable income
I’d love to hear your thoughts. Have any of you felt the same way? What did you do?

I don't want to live abroad anymore, does it make me weak ?
Salam a drari, I've been living in the UAE for the last 2 years with my husband (which is also moroccan bash shi b3din maymshish dmaghom b3id) and I can't do this anymore.
Abu Dhabi is stunning, quality of live is amazing, walakin I don't feel at home niha2yan, like my brain doesn't rest. You may have the best job, best car, best everything, you're just a foreigner, and will never get citizenship. I just keep thinking about the life I left behind (was doing kinda good career wise, had great group of friends and a family I adore), and i just go spiraling. my husband also misses morocco, but still has some fuel in him, ou maradish irj3 without at least a project he could launch in our homecountry.
Ou daba with the tensions m3a Iran and Israel, it just added to my anxiety. Questions like what if there is an Uranium leak and the zone just becomes uninhabitable ? Iran rah ghir fdora. What is they attack the USA bases which are f Abu Dhabi what does it mean ? If i wait too long, air traffic is going to stop and airports will be closed, I'll be stuck here. If Iran closes the Straight of Hormuz Life here is going to become unbearably expensive (which is already tbh), so should I just go back ? I'd rather stay with family and friends and figure another job than to be stuck here far away from them and go through the small savings we have, and the loneliness of knowing if shit goes down, you ain't the priority for the government.
Add to it the fact that I don't have that much friends, and I absolutely hate my job, and is waiting for my husband's startup to do well so I can quit (I'm the sole provider as for now).
I'm lost, scared, homesick, and on verge of a depression.

I’m everyones second choice
Ever feel like you’re just a second option? Like people come to you when they’re lonely, when things fall apart but the second their real favorite one is back you fade into the background…it hurts because you were there you gave your time your attention your care but in the end you were just a backup plan. To the ones who treats others like a backup plan or when they’re lonely I hope one day you feel what it’s like maybe you will understand

Police man acting creepy
I was in casa today since I attended an event yesterday. So today at 1 pm I had already left my hotel and walked a bit reaching the pigeon square and there is a little green area near it, it was full of people and families and I was just walking around waiting for my friend to call me then she did and we stayed on the phone for a little while all the time Im noticing a guy in sunglasses crossing his arms and looking at me, watching me, I was leaving the green space walking back to the square (they're almost the same thing literally fused) he followed me, stopped me and started talking to me I get a vibe of guys who just approach girls and catcall so I try to leave him he says he's the police so I ask for his badge and he does show it to me so I comply and he gets my id and calls to check if I have a record bla bla yadi yada takes me to the police car I explain that as a girl I get scared when im aproached by stranger men cause he had no uniform and showed no badge at first. I feel bothered and I got anxious and scared my adrenaline rose and he literally had me cut the call with my friend, this is too much considering it's day time and there is people around and I don't look suspicious like I'm literally just a girl in casual clothes making a casual girl talk on the phone. And What guy in his right mind crosses his arms and keeps creeping around watching a girl he freaked the shit out of me and just as im leaving approached me? Wtf is this normal?
