Where the HECK ARE THE PLEDGES AT?

<@&488531212437159936> ^^^

Y’all have been awfully quiet, what are you pledges up to?

"Heck" That's some strong langauge there

time for the ol' Pledge Hazing ritual

General chat now

You think you can be sarcastic?

You aren’t allowed sarcasm here pal

H*eck

Yeah buddy, is that a dollar in your pocket or are you just happy to see me? Wait, I mean, is that a dollar in your pocket, because we needed some lunch money and you're just the nerd to give it to us *sneer* hahahahehehe

Lotta pledges rn

^low energy bullies detected
Sad!

Whom?

Just wait, pledges will come out of their shell after orientation, and *then you'll see*

Meta and Clark C

It seems like discord has been rather quiet lately.

Maybe because of the emphasis on the shift off of discord.

Gotta comply with rule 12 while hazing pledges

Probably a natural ebb and flow, friend. Everything is fine

soon enough we'll be hazing pledges on rocket chat

Yes, everything in cycles, my friend.

Bledge best role

I think the real question for tomorrow is: how wrong will Mike Cernovich be?

and -what- is that abomination of a pfp

Abomination, more like salvation

69 never misses

Actually he does lmao

I’m here

As a pledge, I find that it’s best to do more listening and learning than mindlessly spouting nonsense

It's better to not speak and be thought a fool than speak and be known a fool.

Is it not of the nature of a pledge or a child to keep their mouths shut when in the company of more experienced intellectuals?

I'm here. Quite difficult to keep track of everything during work, but I keep it open.

Feel free to participate in general as much as you’d like fellas

@JohnAtlas "lurk moar" is always good advice

Cool well looking forward to having you guys around more both IRL and on our forums! <@&488531212437159936>

I'm more of a free form kind of guy clearly

I say just throw it out (within rules, natch) and see what happens

First I need to finish Douglas Hyde’s “Dedication and Leadership”, then I’ll start posting more.

I like my posts to be free stylin', like this:
`P1 + ρgy1 + ½ρv12 = P2 + ρgy2 + ½ρv22`
Edit: ok to be honest I just googled "long physics equation"

Who pinged?

@Walt just me, wanted to say hi to you pledge guys, we haven't been hearing from many recently

Although I met @Evan this weekend, glad to see we are attracting high quality pledges

Explaining drag is proportional to speed squared with Bernouilli's Equation

^This is the equation I just randomly googled and posted btw, in case anyone's wondering why @JohnAtlas said that

@ThisIsChris it’s nice to meet you Chris! I’m looking forward to meeting you guys for real soon

you too man!

Damn white people and their *shuffles cards * immunizations

I googled your equation to know what on earth you were saying

@ThisIsChris

I guess they can stop blaming us for genociding them with smallpox.

Indiana rally was breddy gud

I'm surprised that worked since some of the symbols were lost in the copying-and-pasting, but I guess whatever I was able to highlight on the page is exactly what google's crawlers would be able to read and index @JohnAtlas

Have you all voted?

I haven't yet, NY doesn't really have early voting

Tomorrow

You can vote absentee with a valid excuse but it all needs to be done through mail and I don't really have an excuse or reason to vote absentee

Gonna vote tomorrow.

Voted early here

I'm voting tomorrow.

In 5-10 years IE will be large enough to have lobbying power

Super excited.

Yeah, doesn't it feel as though the pendulum swings further every day?

Is it a pendulum? Hopefully it's a rocket ship

"Family, country, God"

It will be comparable to vying for the union vote

Some great stuff coming up

Truly it will be big league

Have you guys ever hazed pledges by making them carry out nude activism?

👀

@JohnAtlas absolutely not

I hope not.

^

how we do activism is outlined in <#371705962224025610>

Lol, that was a joke. The optics wouldn’t be good

Especially if it was cold.

yeah unless you look like a classical statue

Lol there’s no real hazing, just vetting. Consider the pledge phase as another stage of it

Activism in the nude lmao

I assumed there wasn’t any hazing, as there’s no central IE location, for one.

well...

we're working on getting an HQ

not for the purposes of hazing though

That would be fantastic

Hazing question, the answer is yes

There something you want to admit guy

I’m a sub-contractor, so let me know if I could help in building/constructing it

What is a sub-contractor vs a normal contractor?

@JohnAtlas

Contractors hire subcontractors to do their work

I mostly do home-remodeling.

@JohnAtlas that's a good skill to have

So, like you do the actual manual stuff and they just dish out the duties to you?

Correct

Like they kind of oversee it so to speak

Right. They take a big cut to just walk around

I usually do non-contracted work, though. So I haven’t worked for many contractors.

Interesting, I've always wanted to learn how to build things

@Trashboat are you on the skills server?

Yea
