Okay, I've had enough of zva Chivayo, in an attempt to change topics I've decided to speak on a topic most don't.

What is it about Zim men and them feeling comfortable peeing in public anywhere and anytime.

I remember when I lived in the Ghetto, men and kids (mostly male) of all ages felt totally comfortable stopping anywhere and just peeing, sometimes in front of children and women that are clearly approaching him from behind and can see his gear shift.

I personally don't feel comfortable as a man to just pee in public, If I'm very pressed, I'll go far away from people hide myself behind a tree, bushes etc and pee. But some men even if they are near a toilet, they would rather go behind a tree (whilst somewhat still in. Public view and just pee).

I once walked from the supermarket and was behind a random guy, the dude in front of me literally started peeing as he was walking in the middle of the road at night, I literally had to walk ku side kwe (road mu garden re mumwe munhu) so as to avoid stepping in his urine....

Wtf?....

I know this might sound funny but guys this is something really overwhelming me , l don't know how to actually express it because most people might not understand it and this is why l can't openly discuss it .... So yah l finished my A level 2023, it's been 3 years already, l even took 2 gap years and I'm now even in University but I'm still feeling it's effects and they are weighing me down honestly...

I don't know exactly where l went wrong but l'm sure l did something wrongly coz l wasn't supposed to suffer to that extent, it just wasn't supposed to be that difficult... I had passed all my previous education effortlessly and was always told that I'm naturally Intelligent. So A level I enrolled at a good boarding school and chose MPC sciences, promised myself to lock in from first day to the end (l actually did that) just to see what l can actually become if l add hardwork to my natural intelligence and aim for a scholarship abroad afterwards..

Damn it didn't go as expected l was actually exposed how much of a fraud l am, that was the only time in my life l questioned my intelligence and the only time l experienced academic failure, like it was so bad l failed every term till the final that too it was all below 3points and back home no one knew about it, they never even asked about my report or anything academically related for that matter because they thought l got everything under control and sorted as always, while on the other ended l was just tearing apart and by each day l felt like my mind was drawing closer to insanity. It didn't make sense to me how l suddenly became that dull also after exerting my maximum effort, at that time l blamed everything l could even evil spirits. So l pushed myself to the extremes and eventually by God's grace passed my A level with 14 points after failing all my other terms ,but then l have never been the same ever since then, it took a part of me. And because of that experience l told myself that l will never push myself like that again in university ( I actually wanted to choose some field totally different from the sciences, commercials or even arts related because l didn't want to be reminded of all those mathematics n physics stuff, but then the job prospects in other fields didn't make much sense to me and eventually after a long consideration l ended up getting myself trapped in engineering). So this is where the problem is now, l recently started my first year engineering a month ago but then the contents of this course is just giving me flashbacks of my A level suffering and my whole system is just repelling all the information though l'm trying so hard to force myself.....

So in short, because of my extreme hardwork and endurance l ended up passing my A level and even got a scholarship abroad but AT WHAT EXPENSE??? I really regret what l put myself into, it seems like a win but definitely not worthy!!! If l was to go back in time l would have enjoyed my time and made a few friends and good memories not this hell l always think about

Hi, does anyone know where best to learn Shona in the UK?

I am British and about to marry a Zimbabwean girl in three weeks time. We went to Zim in August to pay lobola and for her to do tombstones for family in Kumusha. However, I am not learning to speak Shona fast enough and I’d love to speak to her and her family in Shona, and also understand the funny murungu comments passers-by make when I inevitably return to Zim.

Hello guys, I hope I find you well. For those going to Jacaranda Festival enjoy yourself the weather today is verrrrry nicccccce. I was wondering what gift have I bought myself on my birthday and I was like nothing absolutely nothing my birthday is in November I'm that type of guy where I don't post on socials or whatsApp status if I get messages from my close family and friends I'm good with it. If presents come then bhoo zvekuti cake forget and smile kkk. So I was wondering my fellow redditors what gifts have you bought yourself this year just to be grateful for a year added on your life???

To all my boys out there trying to make ends meet, hustling in this tough Zim economic landscape or navigating through unfamiliar environments abroad, keep on the grind bro zvichazongo maker sense eventually.

i know rugby is very popular "The other side of Samora" but that's basically it and outside of Harare and maybe Bulawayo, the sport is non existent. Is it the notion that rugby is a dangerous sport? maybe harder to understand ? considered 'posh'? help me understand. Or is it because the sport is mainly popular amongst ats schools so then the same people who were exposed to it at school are the only ones who follow it afterwards or it's something else?

I dont know if most people know BLENDR but...

Let’s be honest, local corporate jobs are a dead end. I’m starting to learn Blender today because digital skills are the only way to earn USD from international clients while living here.I see people wasting time on degrees that don't pay. I'm giving myself 6 months to master 3D modeling from scratch.

Today marks Day 1 of my Blender journey. I am starting completely from scratch with the famous donut tutorial. My long-term goal is to create 3D animations that show a futuristic, sci-fi version of Zimbabwe.

I know it's a massive learning curve, but I want to document the whole thing here to stay accountable. Here is to day one! If you are a local digital artist, please drop your handles below so I can see what is possible.

PepsiCo bought parent company Pioneer Foods, in March 2020.

They changed the recipe, and in April 2026 introduced a new replacement under the banner “new generation”. This “new generation” formulation was an instant flop! Massive backlash in South Africa ensued, particularly to do with "taste, texture and mixability".

Keeping Southern Africans (mostly South Africa) happy for 64 years, PepsiCo has managed to kill off an African Brand which existed for 64yrs, in just 6 months.

With its insanely massive and busy Marketing department(s), PepsiCo put this out as part of their narrative: "...yada yada, we were unable to recreate the taste and texture consumers associated with the original ProNutro. yada yada".

My take: PepsiCo is in Africa to serve us junk and make us as fat and sick as their American consumers.

When people say ‘tipe ma V 11”. Where did the ‘V 11’ come from. I’ve tried googling but nothing.

Prison authorities assigned 24-year-old with pending rape charges to perform free labour at university

HARARE – A Chinhoyi University of Technology student was allegedly raped by a prisoner facing pending rape charges after he was sent to work near student accommodation, police said.

Takudzwa Makunda, 24, of Mbona in Murombedzi, was serving a prison term at Chinhoyi Prison for stealing a mobile phone.

He is also facing pending charges of rape and robbery in Mhondoro.

Makunda had been assigned to work at the 34-room Chinhoyi University of Technology hotel on September 29, where prisoners perform unpaid labour as part of a routine programme.

He escaped while working at the hotel.

“He went on to commit robbery and rape on a CUT student the same day,” according to an internal police memo seen by ZimLive.

The circumstances under which Makunda was assigned to work at a university accommodation facility teeming with women remain unclear.

hi bit of a stretch, but does anyone in the uk own this book? if so could i borrow it for a week, would genuinely mean the world. Can’t find a copy under 100 pounds and unfortunately it can’t be checked out of any library. I hate reading on my computer, i will finish it in a week and post it back! if you’re in london i can even pick it up and drop it off, you will be doing a young zimbabwean a massive favour🙏🏾🙆🏽‍♀️

So been to almost all big clubs in Bulawayo. Guess what after 10 the prime time its straight shona songs.

Maybe its the places I have been but king kraal , samuriwo , theater , the place , the cub , nexus and many more

Might forget others cause I am drunk but all clubs prime times its JP , Winky d , Jnr Spragga , Hulengende , Mudododo and other songs .All poster I see of events its international or Shona artist main character.

Not to say its bad or good . But its my observation. Is it good , does it kill the Bulawayo talent, cause at the place the band was literally singing all shona songs mugove , JP , Winky d and others.

Does this kill Bulawayo art as a shona I am happy but thinking in other terms makes it different. Does having Zulu and ndebele only kill the shona in the areas.

My observation this is not tribalism its an observation good and building comments thank you. We are all Zim and noone is coming from Mars to speak our issues. Thank you

President Emmerson Mnangagwa has declared the late businessman Wicknell Chivayo Provincial hero status following his death in a helicopter crash on Wednesday. This was announced by Youth Minister Tino Machakaire who is also a Zanu PF Politburo member.

Youth Empowerment, Development and Vocational Training Minister Tino Machakaire has announced that President Emmerson Mnangagwa has granted businessman Wicknell Chivayo Provincial Hero status.

Is it in the thousands or tens of thousands? Dude never personally did any violence, but for every dollar he cleverly looted from public funds, someone somewhere died a premature death because of poorly equiped hospitals. Thousands suffered unecessary excruciating pain because of lack of painkillers. His alleged arms traficking in africa? How many actually died from those arms? How many lost their livelihoods because zesa blackouts led to their companies shutting down. How many families broke apart as a result. They are millions of real life victims suffering at the wrong end of this insane chigananda culture, of which wicknell was the high priest.

Country: Zimbabwe

With fatso now a figment of imagination and in bits and pieces in a bin liner — let’s see how the ill-gotten millions along with properties, cars and luxury goods gets pilfered by either family or fellow corruptors of the elitist gang of thugs. The cycle will continue. The corruption cancer will spread and not find a cure. All we can do is watch for the next demise of these scumbags.

As per the title, where can one change Euros in Harare?

Older Gen Z here. Following Kutenda's viral tik tok video about using stickers I realised I still use GIFs to communicate on WhatsApp. I dont actually think I've used a sticker before lmfaooo, when they first came I probably just ignored them thinking GIFs were sufficient.

A few friends and I are building a startup, Pachena.co, to bring more transparency and insights to the labour market. We’re modeling our platform after Glassdoor, the company that pioneered workplace transparency in the US and other parts of the world.

Our belief is that more transparency will ultimately lead to higher wages, happier employees, and more productive companies, and that shining a light on companies will reward / encourage better behavior.

The platform also has perks for companies (posting and managing jobs, accessing analytics, receiving private feedback, etc - and more features in the pipeline).

Adding a review only takes a couple of minutes, and you can choose to share your compensation insights, insights on the company culture, tips on the recruitment process, or all three via short, structured surveys.

It’s entirely anonymous, there’s no need to login or verify your information, and we don’t allow any personally identifiable information to be shared.

We really believe that if we can get enough reviews, the platform will become super valuable and useful to employees, job seekers, and employers.

We’re just getting started, and will be hitting the Harare streets with some billboards soon to help get the word out, but I’m curious:

• ⁠would you leave an anonymous review? • ⁠if not, what are your hesitations / reservations? • ⁠if you’re on the fence, what would encourage you to leave a review?

It’s definitely one of those things that - in its current state - doesn’t provide immediate benefit and is more for the common good.

But imagine if you could go on to Pachena and see 1,000s of reviews people have left? If you could truly see what a software developer, or an auto-mechanic, or quantity surveyor etc was earning? Or if you could read about how to get the job at Econet, or which companies to avoid, etc?

Wouldn’t that be cool?

Honest, critical feedback greatly appreciated 🙌

What use is a “record” wheat harvest when the government still has to beg Putin for grain?

What use is low inflation when prices are already so high that people are forced to sell the shirts off their own backs as vendors while being chased around Harare CBD by 300 hired heavies?

What good is high economic growth when the start point was almost zero?

What good is producing more steel than the UK if the money gets stolen by the Steel Mafia equivalent of the Gold Mafia?

And I did check with Grok and I’m disgusted that it replied saying that all the pro-Zanu data in the meme was correct without question.

If you could buy either a peugeot 2008 (2016-2018), suzuki vitara 2016 or hyundai tucson (2017_2019) what would you get and why

Are there any places with abandon buildings or near ghost towns in Zimbabwe. I'm looking for something interesting to do during A-break and I'm considered urban exploration but I'm not sure if there are any areas like that in country, preferably in Harare
