+## irc
+
+we're members of the [tildeverse](https://tildeverse.org) and host a server
+in the [tildeverse irc network](https://tilde.chat). the official channel for
+~club is `#club`. stop by and say hello!
+
+run `chat` to open [weechat](https://weechat.org) auto-connected to our irc
+server. try launching [tmux](tmux.html), [byobu](https://superuser.com/a/423397)
+ or [screen](screen.html) to keep your chat session running.
+
+other clients like irssi are available as well! just connect to localhost on
+port 6667 and `/join #club`.
+
+feel free to use tilde.chat's [webchat](https://web.tilde.chat/?join=club) if
+you prefer.
+
+
+## mailing list
+
+we now have an official mailing list!
+
+if your account is old (pre sept 2019), you should be subscribed with the email
+you originally signed up with. if your account is newer (post sept 2019), then 
+you should be subscribed with your @tilde.club address. if you don't fit either
+of those categories, you can subscribe by visiting the [web portal](
+https://lists.tildeverse.org/postorius/lists/tildeclub.lists.tildeverse.org/)
+or by sending a mail to tildeclub-subscribe@lists.tildeverse.org with "subscribe"
+in the subject line. in either case, you can change the email you're subscribed
+with on the web portal or by unsubscribing and re-subscribing from the other
+address.
+
+list archives are available [on the web here](
+https://lists.tildeverse.org/hyperkitty/list/tildeclub@lists.tildeverse.org/).
+
+as of september 17, 2019, we're still seeing quite a few pending mails to
+gmail, yahoo, and fastmail. help get our list delivered by making sure to
+mark list messages as not spam and adding the list address to your contacts.
+if you're feeling especially motivated, please reach out to the support on
+your mail provider and ask them to look into why you're not receiving the
+messages.
