"Accidentally." That was definitely intentional framing. Otherwise the tea would have been centered.
The composition is just too solid for me to believe it wasn't on purpose.

Can I hire her to drop the temp after a shower? I'm super warm natured, so most days I'm sweating as soon as I get out. It would be nice to have an environmentally friendly cryotherapy option.

Because your instance is very well known for incredibly stupid takes and having the critical thinking skills of an acorn.
You're a shining example of the reputation.

I was only able to do it so brazenly because my employment had a set end date, and I had already been hired full time by the department of my career. It was just a temp job to supplement after Musk killed my previous company.

I know that frustration. I ended up bringing my own 100 piece security bit set because they had the same mismatched screwdriver issue.
I even tried to bring my own heat gun, but was told I couldn't use it because the employer can't be responsible if it breaks.
Like, it was a $10 HF heat gun. I couldn't care less if it broke because it was a redundant one I bought because I couldn't find mine.
But my boss didn't like me very much because I had my degree, and was smarter than her (not a high bar to clear).

My last job I had to pull HDDs from the all in one Mac desktops.
If the screens had been removed to upgrade the hardware previously, it was a major pain in the ass to remove because the adhesive to reattach them was much stronger than the OEM.
So, knowing how to do things properly, I asked where the heat gun was. My boss said, "You can't use a heat gun. Just hit the screen with a hammer until it comes off." I had already been hit close to my eye by flying glass from removing them normally at that point, and they didn't provide eye protection.
That's when I said they had a choice. I'd be using a heat gun, not removing the screens, or having a discussion with the safety office. It was my last week (90 day temp), so my boss said, "Fine, I'll do it myself."

Am I the only one who doesn't have a negative experience on Windows 11? Like, I daily drive Cachy, but I have no issues with my work machine.
I guess our tech shop people are doing their jobs right.

Are Type-A Personalities the problem with humanity?
You're mixing up terms. The word you're looking for is Cluster B Personality Disorders (narcissism, sociopathy, attachment disorders, etc.).
There's a difference between people who are driven and competitive, and people who lust for power at all costs.
Edit: But yes, Cluster B disorders are humanity's Great Filter.

There are actually people like that who have naturally lower myostatin levels. My wife went to school with a brother and sister who were ripped despite never working out.
Their bodies just didn't shut down muscle production as soon as most people.

Bathing is by no means new to humans. Plus, we've been masking our funk in different ways for thousands of years.
