the absence of cold, dressed up as a feeling and a flex.

means having a high temperature, or by extension intensely attractive, spicy, popular, or charged with energy.

from From Old English 'hat,' meaning warm or fiery, with cousins across the Germanic familyGerman 'heiss,' Dutch 'heet' — all tracing back to a Proto-Germanic root for heat. The literal sense of temperature came first; the metaphorical heats (a 'hot' temper, a 'hot' chili, a 'hot' celebrity, a 'hot' stock tip) all kindled over centuries as English borrowed the idea of warmth to describe anything burning with intensity.
