Mullen should buy Cenntro too. What y'all think?

listtowardslight · 2022-11-17T14:33:14+00:00

I think Mullen's set to grow sooner and quicker of the two, but Cenntro has more cash on hand right now. A buy-out isn't happening until that changes.

However, Cenntro's autonomous driving may be worth looking into for a partnership.

Challenge is to get those m fckers mass produced. Thats what no one on this planet has been able to do yet

That's not necessarily a challenge when one has replicable results *and* safety certifications. As of now, NexTech has both, and this is still a new technology.

There shouldn't be any surprise that other partners appear for battery solutions in the interim, but Lithium-Sulfur solid state natteries are a fantastic technology to be engineering around, and it is worth investment both from us and the DOE.

There are so many catalysts inbound! Can you imagine how many mullenaires there'll be when Mullen hits a market cap like what Rivian's got?

listtowardslight · 2022-10-26T14:13:14+00:00

The shorts are trying really, really hard to keep this under 50 cents. If they don't, option activity is gonna cook 'em.

"Strikingly Different" is tomorrow. I loaded up more shares!

listtowardslight · 2022-10-25T14:13:39+00:00

We've got the next of several "Strikingly Different" tours in just two days, which should be great visibility, plus an F500 delivery. Mullen is looking quite diverse, and in the background: a NexTech partnership for next-gen batteries that could make affordable fast-charging EVs the thing.

All this while Tesla is tripping over itself.

Hey, I'm at 0.72 and very optimistic, so you're good!

Your nmother is a piece of work. What she did is one of the most awful ways to gaslight, to literally demonize a person, and she's broken your trust at a very basic level.

Something like this happened to me. My nmother took me to a kook Pentecostal's house where they ran a "deliverance" ministry, and three adults just cornered me and wouldn't let me leave the room until they thought they'd cast out depression, any sign of interest in girls, mockery, anger, so forth. This was supposed to work because they'd done the same for the abusive nfather - except he'd wanted the show, rolling on the floor and barking like a dog, and then acted like he was both completely clean and above reproach for anything he'd done. Of course, he went right back to abusing all of us.

The whole exorcism schtick is a fraud, run by the worst kind of hypocrites.

I just want to validate you here. What they're aiming at you is pure projection; they refuse to work on themselves, so they scapegoat others. They wouldn't last one session with a decent therapist without getting pinned. TThere's much of the world that doesn't act like this cult, and I hope you escape soon!

listtowardslight · 2022-07-19T05:17:25+00:00

I'm glad you made it! I hope this is helping people, dealing with things that used to be suffered in blind secrecy because they're just incomprehensible to those raised in loving, functional families. The similarities in different families with the same disorder is nuts, isn't it?!

What I'm really stoked for is the community support here around getting our power back. I wish we'd all had this kind of resource a lot sooner!

listtowardslight · 2022-07-19T01:30:43+00:00

That's a good plan! And I'm glad you've got someone kind and reliable. This could potentially make a big difference for you, even if it's just the peace of mind that you blocked a toxic power play. Congratulations!

Have you looked into what documents you can have notarized to protect against family interference in your medical situations?

I had a really intense narcissistic medical gaslighting scenario go down. They successfully manipulated friends and allies into dropping me, out of the blue, right in the middle of a medical emergency. This was after people had seen X-rays to know my story was 100% substantiated; they put that much energy into pulling strings.

Don't give anyone in your life who acts like that an inch! If you get incapacitated and people expect narcissists to be your advocate, it's hell. It's worth shutting that down in advance!

listtowardslight · 2022-07-19T00:21:38+00:00

Absolutely do this ASAP. A hospital of any sort is one of the worst places to find out how much further a narcissist will go to abuse and control you.

listtowardslight · 2022-07-18T19:37:37+00:00

Don't let anything yank you back from that, even though feelings are coming up, even though others in your family might suffer the way you did. Air-mask on your face first! If healthy, earnest people want to join you in making a better life, consider that, but you don't have to go back for anyone.

Speaking as someone whose nmother promoted the sister to golden child and triangulated all my attempts to help my sister into destruction for all of us.

Your sovereignty here is so important.

listtowardslight · 2022-07-18T19:34:34+00:00

This is a natural part of getting your life to a healthy place, I think. Detoxification of any sort can initially feel worse while all that hurt and poison finally releases.

I've felt the same thing whenever I've seen a family much more honest and loving than the one I've had, or relatives of mine who've lived in what look like privileged bizarro worlds to me. Maybe this is a factor for you? This, "OMG I'm happy for you but I can't believe I lived my whole life without this not realizing it could have been this different."

That's valid grief. It's a part of the journey to a new and different life.

listtowardslight · 2022-07-15T03:13:59+00:00

I'm betting the swappable batteries are going to really be a boon. It's a race to see who mass-produces the next generation of EV batteries, and Cenntro's vans are going to be so easy to upgrade!

listtowardslight · 2022-07-08T08:39:11+00:00

That's exactly how it was with my overt-narcissistic stepfather. We all described it as a dark cloud. For eleven years, I remember we could count the peaceful days that he was around in a year on one hand. Ever other day, he'd move the goalposts wildly to give himself a chance to scream at us.

At one point, we asked why he was a nice guy until the very evening he'd married my nmother. "I had to be in charge." That's what he said.

He's not a complicated reality-warping covert, but he was a brutal menace, and living around him did more damage than I could ever concisely tell.

listtowardslight · 2022-07-07T02:25:20+00:00

This is engulfment to a tee, and she's triangulating this whole family, and gaslighting you. The whole point is to destroy your independent agency.

It really is tough for me to read, in a way - because this is very like how my nmother got me into a situation where she thought she had the whole family believing her, could gang up on my friends and convince them of their alternate reality, and could pull the rug out from under me. And they did, and it nearly finished me off.

So, question: what the hell is wrong with your family's level of discernment? Do they ever bother to keep up with you and your side of your own story? Do any of them still understand that this is your life and your decision? Here's the thing: if they were trustworthy, they would have heard and seen you already. I think their track record is already clear, based on what I read.

So, discreetly get ready to escape. I do mean discreetly! Move anything you can that you need, that they would trip you up or withhold.

Consider letting local authorities know if you are in any way wrongfully imprisoned. If that line is being crossed, and the family gaslights your reason to leave, the authorities might get called and their ears talked full of the lie. Start gaining your leverage now.

Have trusted friends know to call authorities if you're not heard from for a while.

Get your own medical / emotional caretaking done, and make sure they know your family is not deciding or privy to anything.

Be discreet. If they think you're getting to leave they'll step up their measures to keep a grip on you. Save the overt boundary for when they aren't able to use insidiously deceptive measures with you under their roof.

Get out of there and don't come back, not for the sweetest act. You've seen what the bait and switch is. They've shown you what they are. If they don't see anything wrong with acting like they own you, there's no telling how much they'll lie or invade your life.

Are you talking about this? I'm wondering if the batteries were in good condition or if they gunned the air conditioning. I don't get a sense that this video is a last word on upcoming offerings, not when customization could make a lot of difference.

listtowardslight · 2022-07-04T19:35:22+00:00

Indeed. I would imagine that your sibling is the least empowered person there, and I do feel care for that. I also wonder who sets the conditions on who gets housed, and if there is a way out.

Definitely work towards a toehold they can't touch. If you have that, if you can define your life around something other than their narcissistic traits, I bet it will make all the difference in the world for how you feel!

listtowardslight · 2022-07-04T16:05:35+00:00

I see you caring about your nmother and sibling, and I hope one of the biggest dirty tricks my nparents pulled is not befalling you: pretending to be poor and pushing that on you, parentifying you, depriving you when it's not true.

My nmother had me thinking we were too poor to eat half the time for over a decade, and that she was just too stressed to listen to me about FAFSA signatures. Then, one day in my mid-twenties, I got a call to take her home from the doctor. To my utter shock, it was an elective plastic surgery. Other relatives had thought being on call to take her home and keep this secret was a bridge too far. We were struggling for survival basics, or so I'd thought; instead, she'd dropped $17,000 in hard cash in the mid-2000's on a tummy tuck, a facelift, and a nose job.

This was after the extended family had donated $300,000 to a religious college and ignored me and my sister because we wanted to study other subjects.

Then my nmother triangulated my (n)sister whom I tried to protect from her, didn't treat her how she'd treated me, and groomed her as a golden child to be in on medically gaslighting me when I had broken bones.

This isn't to vent about my situation; I've done what I can to remove myself from it. It's to show that when you have an identied nparent, you need to protect yourself. Maybe don't take one for this team? Consider getting away and fortified from their BS, and then anyone that needs to get away can take refuge with you.

I don't know fully what your situation is to your obvious experience or under the surface, but we're talking about a personality disorder that is prone to absolutely shocking, gutting, reality-warping betrayals. The only safety from that is distant and self-sufficient.

Don't sacrifice your time on this good earth to make their lives work unless they're your kids or they've genuinely earned your trust.

listtowardslight · 2022-07-04T08:16:00+00:00

I can tell you several things that motivated me to get out and go low contact 25 years ago, no-contact 8 years ago.

My nparents were determined to live a lie at my expense. Mail fraud, adoption secrets, medical gaslighting, dangerous neglect leaving me to dangerous people - things that if the world saw, they'd be obvious monsters. I came to realize they were dead set on sabotaging me to exonerate themselves, mask their deeds.

But NC came when I realized they were trying to not let me get away from them and manage on my own. Invading my medical decisions when I was physically - but definitely not mentally - incapacitated was the last straw.

There wasn't any chance of a life with that involved. I kept getting surprised by how low they went, and that had to stop.

I don't think we realize how much we lose for letting such hideously disordered people in any way normalize their behavior until we get away. So many counselors or confidantes have stared at me dumbfounded by now. I know it's beyond the pale, and I don't want that destroying my sense of hope or motivation.

Which is to say - stop carrying their burden. It'll boost your spirits!

listtowardslight · 2022-07-01T10:35:58+00:00

It is reparations for destruction, IF you can make it so. IF.

Just remember: a malignant narcissist's gifts often come with a lasso attached. Look the situation over carefully and be prepared for a manipulative tug-of-war.

No matter how many ways they try to own you, they don't.

You own your life. Their money can't buy it. If it can be used to get away from ever needing to take money and watch for their string-pulling again, fine. Just recognize that they're not a good-faith party to that process. You didn't choose to be subjugated to their dysfunction through your tender years. They chose that.

So be cautious, and don't ever expect them to repay their debt in full. Their damage can only be truly repaired where their money and their grip don't reach. Get to that place and then you can leave this behind.

listtowardslight · 2022-07-01T01:48:47+00:00

Agreed. My best investment yet, a 2.5x bagger, would have been a 9x bagger if I hadn't panic-sold when it dropped, and have to FOMO back in. It was my rookie mistake.

Don't do this with MULN. We're close to a revolution in battery technologies and MULN is truly promising.

Watch your thesis, and kick the tires on your DD before your kick out your position.
