I hope you’re staying hydrated out there, friends! Here’s a Pop Culture Fix to satiate your accompanying thirst!

+ Back in March, news broke that Jodie Comer — known to you as Villanelle from Killing Eve, and known to me as my wife’s other wife — will star in an adaptation of Jen Beagin’s forthcoming novel, Big Swiss. Well, new details about Big Swiss keep dripping out of the publishing faucet and this thing sure does seem both gay and Killing Eve-y! From Simon and Schuster:

Greta lives with her friend Sabine in an ancient Dutch farmhouse in Hudson, New York. The house, built in 1737, is unrenovated, uninsulated, and full of bees. Greta spends her days transcribing therapy sessions for a sex coach who calls himself Om. She becomes infatuated with his newest client, a repressed married woman she affectionately refers to as Big Swiss, since she’s tall, stoic, and originally from Switzerland. Greta is fascinated by Big Swiss’s refreshing attitude toward trauma. They both have dark histories, but Big Swiss chooses to remain unattached to her suffering while Greta continues to be tortured by her past… When they accidentally meet in real life, an explosive affair ensues.

Comer plays Big Swiss. Some excerpts from the novel are making their way around Twitter, but I’m not exactly sure how they were, um, obtained, so I won’t link them — but I will say they didn’t do anything to dispel gay premonitions!

+ More Black women are creating TV shows. These creators credit each other, not Hollywood.
