Two days ago I set the thermostat to run the fan continuously even when the system isn't actively cooling the air and that made things much more bearable. I have my thermostat set for 83-ish during the day when it's just me at home because I can tolerate it. Just taking the warm air from upstairs and throwing it into the basement was very effective.

(I'm on board with everything you're saying in this thread)
