隆Hola! Mi querida comunidad, espero que todo est茅 marchando muy bien en sus vidas y tengan una excelente semana馃拹.
Llegu茅 a la iniciativa del rumor de la amiga 
@charjaim por mera casualidad, pero que casualidad m谩s bonita 馃槉.
@charjaim por mera casualidad, pero que casualidad m谩s bonita 馃槉.Hello! My dear community, I hope everything is going very well in your lives and have a great week馃拹. I came across
Hive da para todo, hasta para reirse de las cosas que uno dice 隆Dios mio querido! - Con las manos hacia el cielo - 驴C贸mo pueden seguir ocurriendo estas cosas? y lo que queda es reirse de la desgracia vivida.
驴Por qu茅 digo esto? Porque yo tengo en mi casa a LA DIRECTORA DE LA CL脥NICA DEL RUMOR馃ぃ馃槀馃槄.
De verdad que mi madre es un ser con muchas virtudes que no pueden esconderse, pero tiene una facilidad y un poder de convicci贸n de creer que todo 隆ABSOLUTAMENTE TODO! lo que le pasan por diferentes v铆as es una verdad sin discusi贸n y que incluso, se deben tomar las medidas necesarias para evitar da帽os colaterales.
Creo que su pasi贸n o talento por el rumor inici贸 con los correos electr贸nicos: _reenv铆alo a 50 personas para tener buena suerte_馃檭, y entonces, como era algo "novedoso" yo ca铆 por un tiempo en eso, pero luego me hart茅 y lo dej茅. En cambio, ella sigui贸 y lo llev贸 a otro nivel.
Hive is a place for everything, even for laughing at the things you say, "My dear God! - With hands to the sky - how can these things keep happening and what is left is to laugh at the misfortune experienced. Why do I say this? Because I have in my house THE DIRECTOR OF THE CLINIC OF RUMOUR馃ぃ馃槀馃槄. Truly, my mother is a being with many virtues that cannot be hidden, but she has a facility and a power of conviction to believe that everything, ABSOLUTELY EVERYTHING! that is passed on to her through different channels is a truth without discussion and that even, the necessary measures must be taken to avoid collateral damage. I think his passion or talent for rumour-mongering started with the emails: _send it to 50 people for good luck_馃檭, and then, as it was something "novel" I fell for a while into it, but then I got fed up and stopped. Instead, she went on and took it to another level.
Recuerdo que en 2017 cuando las protestas en el pa铆s alcanzaron un climax bien fuerte, yo me encontraba en la ciudad donde esta el aeropuerto internacional "la puerta de entrada al pa铆s" y ella a cientos de kil贸metros, por lo que solo nos comunicabamos via WhatsApp. Ella sabe que yo hace mucho tiempo dej茅 de creer en rumores (como buena cient铆fica social que soy) as铆 que me molesta cualquier tipo de cadena o informaci贸n sin sustento que pasen por esa v铆a.
Yo si la notaba intranquila y llamaba a cada rato, hasta que le pregunt茅: mam谩 驴Qu茅 te ocurre?
隆AY! Hija - Con el tono de preocupaci贸n mas aterrador de la historia - Es que me "pasaron" que rampa 4 esta prendida, ya es un hecho, el gobierno abandona el pa铆s. La Guaira es un caos, se escuchan las sirenas, tanquetas, aviones saliendo 隆Es una locura!
Lo que mas me molest贸, no fue ni siquiera el rumor, sino que ella solo llamaba para saber si la noticia era cierta en vez de preguntar si yo estaba bien馃檭.
Le aclar茅 que desde mi ventana, la cual ten铆a una excelente vista al cielo, no hab铆a indicios de aviones ni "nada prendido", que toda la ciudad estaba en silencio y que la dichosa rampa 4 hace a帽os 隆A脩OS! Estaba fuera de circulaci贸n. A ella no le qued贸 mas remedio que guardar silencio.
I remember that in 2017 when the protests in the country reached a very strong climax, I was in the city where the international airport "the gateway to the country" is located and she was hundreds of kilometres away, so we only communicated via WhatsApp. She knows that I stopped believing in rumours a long time ago (as the good social scientist that I am) so any kind of chain or unsubstantiated information that passes through this channel bothers me. I did notice her uneasy and she was calling all the time, until I asked her: "Mum, what's wrong with you?
OUCH! Daughter - With the most terrifying tone of concern in history - It's just that they "told me" that ramp 4 is on, it's already a fact, the government is leaving the country. La Guaira is in chaos, you can hear the sirens, tanks, planes leaving, it's crazy! What bothered me the most was not even the rumour, but that she was only calling to find out if the news was true instead of asking if I was ok馃檭. I made it clear to her that from my window, which had an excellent view of the sky, there were no signs of planes or "nothing on", that the whole city was silent and that the said ramp 4 years ago YEARS ago! was out of circulation. She had no choice but to remain silent.

Bueno, eso no se ha detenido. Cada d铆a crecen los rumores y yo escucho sus notas de voz cuando inician: Hola, te habla el doctor Simosa... o la tan sonada "bueno esto me lo dijo mi primo que esta en el comando 7 de la guardia..." tambi茅n hay otro muy sonado "se vienen cosas pero no los puedo decir..." y yo solo pienso 隆Tierra no me tragues a mi, tragalos a ellos!
En una oportunidad, mi madre enferm贸 y le elimin茅 todos los grupos de la bendita red social y la monitoreaba todo el tiempo; la "desintoxicaci贸n" no le dur贸 mucho porque es un c铆rculo de 7 u 8 personas, incluido mi padre, que VIVEN DE ESAS CADENAS DE RUMORES como verdad absoluta e irrefutable. As铆 que creo que ellos son la Sociedad Venezolana del Rumor S.A.
Por eso, ahora la dejo, solo espero que en el momento que me llegu茅 el SEBIN (cuerpo policial de mi pa铆s) a tocarme la puerta "porque de cierto n煤mero y se帽al estan mandando mensajes conspiradores y de traici贸n a la patria", ella asuma su responsabilidad y entienda que esto es una enfermedad que la esta consumiendo.
Well, it hasn't stopped. Every day the rumours grow and I listen to their voice notes when they start: Hello, this is Doctor Simosa speaking... or the much-talked-about "well this was told to me by my cousin who is in command 7 of the guard..." there is also another very loud one "things are coming but I can't tell you..." and I just think, Earth, don't swallow me, swallow them! Once, my mother got sick and I deleted all the groups of the blessed social network and monitored her all the time; the "detox" did not last long because it is a circle of 7 or 8 people, including my father, who LIVE ON THOSE RUMOUR CHAINS as absolute and irrefutable truth. So I think they are the Sociedad Venezolana del Rumor S.A. (Venezuelan Rumour Society).
So, now I leave her, I just hope that when the SEBIN (my country's police force) comes to knock on my door "because from a certain number and signal they are sending messages of conspiracy and treason", she assumes her responsibility and understands that this is a disease that is consuming her.
Esto es muy f谩cil para m铆, porque he aprendido a identificar que si y que no. Una de mis t茅cnicas es que no permito que mis contactos me pasen nada de ese material y se los digo claramente - mis redes sociales no son para cadenas ni rumores- y eso me ha permitido estar alejada de ellas (se incluyen de medicina, Dios, chistes, no permito nada). Otra t茅cnica es ir a fuentes confiables, y no hablo de las propias redes sino la g茅nesis, es decir, qui茅n lo dijo, cuando lo dijo y en qu茅 contexto lo dijo 驴obsesiva? Bueno, me gusta tener la verdad y saber que creer y que no. Y por 煤ltimo, de ser cierto el rumor, tomar acci贸n de lo que debo hacer, nuevamente de la mano de expertos.
Es que si vivieramos del efecto bola o de la t茅cnica del "tel茅fono descompuesto", el mundo vivir铆a en un completo caso y anarqu铆a comprando cada dos minutos velas, almacenando agua y comprando enlatados 馃檭 un poquito de cordura y raciocinio es lo que necesitamos馃槈.
How do I keep from falling for rumours?
This is very easy for me, because I have learned to identify what is and what is not. One of my techniques is that I don't allow my contacts to pass me any of that material and I tell them clearly - my social networks are not for chains or rumours - and that has allowed me to stay away from them (they include medicine, God, jokes, I don't allow anything). Another technique is to go to reliable sources, and I'm not talking about the networks themselves but the genesis, i.e. who said it, when they said it and in what context they said it, obsessive? Well, I like to have the truth and know what to believe and what not to believe. And finally, if the rumour is true, I take action on what I should do, again with the help of experts. If we were living on the ball effect or the "broken phone" technique, the world would be in a complete state of anarchy, buying candles every two minutes, storing water and buying canned goods 馃檭 a little bit of sanity and reason is what we need馃槈.
Yo creo que ya no me da tiempo de hacer la invitaci贸n a otras personas que hablen de su experiencia, pero agradezco el espacio para poder expresar lo que muchas veces es com煤n pero no es normal, y como podemos afrontarlo o al menos no sucumbir ante la tentaci贸n.
Gracias por el espacio. La portada la hice en Canvas. La fotograf铆a tiene su fuente. El separador es de FotoJet.
Hasta un pr贸ximo encuentro馃尯.
I don't think I have time to invite others to talk about their experience, but I appreciate the space to express what is often common but not normal, and how we can deal with it or at least not succumb to the temptation. Thanks for the space. The cover was made in Canvas. The photograph has its source. The divider is from FotoJet. Until we meet again馃尯.
