They want us to join their fighting
But our answer today
Is to let all our worries
Like the breeze through our fingers slip away
Peace has come to Zimbabwe
Third World's right on the one
Now's the time for celebration

'Cause we've only just begun

How he didn't get assassinated and lived to that age just shocks me every time.


He might have avoided the Hague, but he can't avoid the flaming pineapple up the butt in hell.

I have a screenshot of one of the last text messages I got from my Dad before his passing last year, and it was about the military coup in Zimbabwe in 2017, as my Dad had spent time there for work in the past. His quote:

"Yes, I remember landing at the airport in Harare to refuel. Not only were we not allowed off the plane, but we couldn't take pictures out of the windows either. Armed soldiers ensured cameras remained in pockets. That was a long time ago, maybe 1991 or thereabouts, the early days of Mugabe dictatorship."

RIP Dad. RNIP Mugabe.
