Homophobia can get downright silly. Silly is such a lighthearted word for something as disgusting as homophobia, but it's true. I know of some guys who won't even wipe their butt well because they think it's gay to touch themselves there. I'm not saying you need to paint a rainbow on your face and march at Pride festival, but not wiping seems like a bit much, doesn't it?
In this case we see the president of Russia, Vladmir Putin. He's a known homophobe so clearly he wouldn't want his bobsledding team to be behind each other. Everyone knows that being behind another man makes you gay. *rolls eyes*. I would love to see how a bobsled like that does, though. I'm thinking it ends in a crash, which could be cool. Bobsledding could be the new Nascar.
Over the years, weve seen so many food trends come and go, such as ramen burgers, matcha, and spiked ice-cream. Nowadays, were seeing another trend making waves in the food industry. How many times today have you seen an Instagram photo of a scoop of black ice cream, or a cup of black yogurt, or hamburgers with black buns? Indeed, the charcoal trend has taken the world by storm.
So, what gives your latte that deep black shade? Activated charcoal, or coconut ash, is produced by heating coconut shells to insanely high temperatures until theyre burnt to a crisp. The ashes are then increased in size by steaming at high temperatures. Through this process, the ashes become a strong detoxifier, mostly because they become extra absorbent. This product may be purchased in pill form, and promises to alleviate hangovers, minimize the effects of food poisoning, and fight the visible signs of aging.
Activated charcoal is said to boost ones energy as a result of decreasing toxins in the body. However, no evidence proves that detoxifying can lead to increased energy. Also, while it can help cure a hangover, it doesnt necessarily remove alcohol from your blood. It is also said to aid in debloating your stomach because it cleanses your colon but again, this all anecdotal and isnt supported by scientific evidence as of yet. All we can say for sure is that it is a proven detoxifier.
