I couldn’t be more proud to be a part of the @HadrianInc team.

Of all the capital raises I’ve been a part of throughout my career, this has been the most energizing, fulfilling, and mission aligned experience by a wide margin.

@2112Power has assembled a legendary team to go build the capabilities America and western civilization direly need to ensure our future.

We’re here to relentlessly build and pull the future forward, and we hope you will join us!

[Chris Power @2112Power]

Hadrian is announcing a $260m Series C lead by @foundersfund + @Lux_Capital + @MorganStanley for (Factory Expansion financing). We're also welcoming new investors @altimeter, @1789Capital + investments from existing investors @a16z, @constructcap, @137ventures and many others.

This capital will be deployed to help our customers and the DOD manufacture faster, at scale, and onshore with @HadrianInc - creating millions of new, advanced manufacturing jobs over the coming decade.

We're announcing:

Factories as a Service for parts, assemblies and products driven by DOD and Customer demand, and our entry into Welding, Casting, Additive and other manufacturing domains.

Dedicated divisions for Maritime and Munitions to meet the scale and speed needed to reclaim our birthright as the industrial superpower of the world;

@evrenseImerak That eye…

Been on the other end of this and it’s an emotional nightmare.

I knew they were avoidant, which they owned publicly, but I didn’t have a full appreciation for the deactivation and survival strategies the nervous system runs when closeness starts to feel real and threatening to their nervous system.

Glad homegirl got out before the damage. I was in deep emotionally and I will never be the same person after that.

I think the most beautiful poem I ever wrote was just now, on my porch, to myself, ad hoc.

I just laughed and started naming things life gives you, while playing on the tangent throughout.

Life gives you, joy. Life gives you pain. Life gives you perspective, it gives you wisdom, confusion, lessons, experiences, competence, confidence, doubt. It gives you peace, anxiety, skills, interests. It gives you patience, it gives you reward. It gives goals, failures, resolve, limits, challenges, victories, defeats, second chances, boundaries, trauma, depth, essence, soul. It gives you nourishment. It gives you soil. It gives you plants, fruits, seeds, toothpicks, tools, crafts, accomplishments, progress, setbacks, comebacks, firsts, lasts, nevers, always, should have beens, could have beens, and even would have beens. It gives you beautiful. It gives you horror. It gives you fear, bravery, uniqueness, abundance, scarcity, starvation, indulgence, gluttony, hedonism, heroism, destress, finesse, charm, quirks, sporks, dorks, theater kids, belly laughs…

And so on and so forth. Try it sometime and see where your mind takes you.

@voidwithverses Except, only one of us actually let go. One never did.

@taylorburrowes I literally can’t function any other way, and I don’t know how other people do it.

@ZubyMusic Isn’t it just the best, most exhausting, most rewarding part of life?

[Thomas Lawson @Thomasfidy]

Paced myself and waited for actions to match words.

I took words and low pressure actions at face value and got swept up in the chemistry and attunement.

I allowed myself to completely drop my gaurd and attach. Not because they earned it, but because I felt safe and they seemed amazing.

I paid dearly.

[Thomas Lawson @Thomasfidy]

@prinkasusa Aka, the bare minimum.

I’d say it boggles my mind how some people behave in relationships, but I’ve seen enough and been on the other end of this myself.

Glad you walked away. Life’s to short to give your irreplaceable time, attention, and health to someone so flippant.

@luxemiaa Real man 💩

@taylorburrowes Learned that the hard way.

@MurrayHillGuy1 The response is petulant and crude.

She’s making time to see him, which he’s apparently offended by the idea that she has a friend with a birthday that she’s working around.

Not a chill guy lol

[Thomas Lawson @Thomasfidy]

@kevin_nealon Seriously, what a great joke.

@mountainpilled Godspeed

[Thomas Lawson @Thomasfidy]

I’m sarcastic, baseline, so I read it as tongue in cheek, which could’ve been responded to playfully, but they seemed to take it literal/personally.

Something like, “I have a promo code” or “Is there a trial period at least”.

Not this exact situation, but I’m 98.756% sure I’ve had plenty of women on dating apps unmatch with me because of a joke in the initial message.

I can’t be with someone with no sense of humor, so I’m fine with it.
