      Or “a typical Tuesday at work” for me…

      The labor laws are so insanely vague here in NY that it literally says “all factories must maintain a reasonable temperature and humidity.” They then never define what that is and my representatives won’t answer when asked what it is…

      It gets over 90°F and 90% humidity frequently in here… Literal sweatshop lol

      With the new climate its gonna be used so often that we need a shorter word for it.

      Hmm… Hex’d? Cli-angry? Hausted? Nah, doesn’t feel catchy enough.

        I actually like hex’d. In Germany a “Hexe” is a (mostly evil) witch. And as it kinda feels like getting cursed, that one has a nice twist.
