Do hot objects absorb infrared radiation?

All objects emit (give out) and absorb (take in) thermal radiation, which is also called infrared radiation. The hotter an object is, the more infrared radiation it emits. However; the hotter an object, the faster it will emit infrared radiation. Even though hotter objects can absorb infrared radiation, they will continue to emit infrared radiation much faster than they absorb it from any colder objects / sources around them, until an equilibrium is achieved with the objects surroundings i.e. it is always an antagonistic relationship with the objects surroundings and the surroundings with the object.
