I can ride my bike to work as its about 10k away, but it’s so damn hot im sure I’ll get heat exhaustion before I get there. In May there was a heat advisory and basically told people, unless you have to, stay indoors after 10. The only way to be outside is in the shade in front of a fan drinking something cold.
North of 95F your body will start having trouble regulating temperature and hydration, ventilation, and shade become critical. On a bike you can only reasonably control hydration (can’t depend on strong wind, moving at a constant speed, or staying under building and foliage shade) so basically 9 months of the year you’re putting your health at risk to commute by bike. Riding a bike to the nearest bus stop and going from there might be the best middle ground.

Yup, Texas is a petro-state. They don’t give a fuck about you. Unless you fuck with their profits.
