With summer soon beginning in the northern hemisphere, what are some pro tips for staying cool?

Close all your windows, and the blinds, watch Christmas movies with ice cream and cookies.
Always helps for me, lets me convince myself it’s winter and cozy
I don’t have air conditioning, other than window units that I try not to use to cool the place, but I do use them for dehumidification a lot when it’s hot out, and that helps an absolute ton.

Move further north.
You mean like to the living room?

This convention that summer "begins" at the solstice is so weird and disconnected from the commonly understood definition of summer. Flowers bloomed months ago, it's baking hot, days are about to start getting shorter. It's already summer.
The heat follows the sun, so the hottest months are the two after the solstice

Sure, but the third hottest is June, not September, so if the seasons last (12/4=) 3 months then logically summer began 3 weeks ago.

We had the windows open the other night, and next door's cat decided to sneak in and visit us!
Definitely better than my experience last night, it was a rather larger spider.

Put up a simple fan and sparkle water on your naked skin. That will bring your temperature down pretty quick for cheap.
Cons is that it's a little trying to be constantly spraying water on yourself and that it can be a little messy. It's also more convenient to do in a private space like your house. But it's way cheaper than air conditioning and you will be as cool. The principle of evaporative cooling is amazing.
They sell misters for use outside connected to a hose. They’re super effective in the drier climates.

Take the plastic housing off of an upright column fan and turn it into an air blade.
I'm not joking, I have done this. It provides an amazing laminar (non turbulent) column of air that is so refreshing.
