Lived here for nine years, this is really hot. Heat indexes of 103-110 aren’t the norm, even in summer.

This sort of heat happens every so often. When I moved here it was 100°+ everyday for like 40 days straight. What is different this time is that there are SO many transplants to Houston that the level of hysteria about the temps being higher than average that don't have experience with these temps and this level of humidity.
I keep my house warmer, 80, so the temp differential between inside and outside isn't that that large and water doesn't condensate on my skin when I walk out the door.

Acclimate to nature, don't fight it. The last 10,000 generations of your ancestors didn't survive just so you could complain about it being too hot out from your air-conditioned bathroom getting hemroids on the toilet 🤷‍♂️😅

You said keep your thermostat at 80??? Ok ERCOT 😂
