Just curious what you are doing to beat the heat.
I'm lucky I work in an air-conditioned building. But the elevators are plenty warm.
I go home and drink water and sit. The AC pretty much runs constantly to keep the house at 76 degrees.

Fucking kill me... Taking another shower. Thinking of heading out to my college to study for the state boards but I really dread the idea of walking around in this heat. I'm just glad I get to install my new AC tonight. I had to take an ice cold shower last night lol.
My room thermometer reads 97 degrees...

Swim, stay in the AC, drink lots of water, go on runs right at dark. I had to move last week and help some friends move. It was pure death. Even went on a hike last Tuesday in the morning, but by the end, around 2pm, it was 107 degrees. Yeaaaaaa!

Office is airconditioned and so is my apartment. I die a little inside everytime I go for a smoke break.

Luckily my house has AC. However my car does not and in my job I am forced to drive it 100-200 kms a day. It's a freaking sauna after standing in the direct sun light for a while.

AC broke last year, this year its 110 degrees.
But we bought the awesomest AC unit ever.
Had to buy 2 Window units and had to sleep on the floor in one room.
Freakin 99 degrees and my room is the hottest in the house.
(ALL LAST YEAR)

texas here. our ac's handle the heat pretty well, i feel sorry for anyone up north without centralized air units.
the ridiculous humidity paired with the heat makes it borderline unbearable to be outside anytime after 10am or before 6pm. but outside of that time span it's really not bad imo.
