We could have put Armie Hammer forward for two roles here, but we're just about giving the nod to his part as Clyde Tolson in 2011's 'J. Edgar', although it's a close call with his other major gay performance as Oliver in 2017's 'Call Me by Your Name.' The latter film is a heartbreaking and beautiful tale of sexual experimentation on a Summer holiday, but the gravitas and subject matter of 'J. Edgar' just wins out.
There is enormous controversy about J.Edgar Hoover's sexuality, and it never has (and probably never will) explicitly be confirmed that he was gay, but his lawyer Clyde Tolson was. Tolson was the main beneficiary of Hoover's will, and also accepted the US flag that was placed on his coffin at his funeral. Hammer's performance in both movies is incredible, but he's married to Elizabeth Chambers in real life.
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.
