I found this site called Fitocracy, and it’s kicking my ass.
Fitocracy is a site where you can track your workouts, and it gives each activity a number of points. You level up after you’ve earned so many points, and there’s also quests (which give you bonus points when you complete them) and achievements you can go after. Fitocracy is also a social site. There are leaderboards so you can see how you compare with others on the site (ranked using your 30-day average), you can follow others and view their profile and workouts, and join groups and compete in group challenges.
Fitocracy is playing on my nerd/gamer side, my very competitive nature, my addictive personality, and my desire to stay reasonably fit. In other words, I’m fucked.
In less than two months, what used to be just a casual workout has mutated into something that looks like:
200 Chest Flyes
400 Seated Side Lateral Raises
100 Seated Good Mornings
500 Russian Twists
100 Bench Dips
750 Crunches
500 Frog Kicks (equivalent to about 25 minutes on Intense on an Eliptical)
200 Cable Hip Adductions
I think I may have a problem…
I wish I wasn’t, but I can’t change it.

Kristen Stewart: smiling is not an obligation, professional or otherwise
”She stands out on the red carpet because she does not smile broadly or pose; she usually looks slightly uncomfortable. Of her red-carpet experience,Stewart said:
People say that I’m miserable all the time. It’s not that I’m miserable, it’s just that somebody’s yelling at me…I literally, sometimes, have to keep myself from crying…It’s a physical reaction to the energy that’s thrown at you.”
“Stewart is often a target of a specific kind of body policing: the “smile, baby” requirement. When she appears on the red carpet and does not assure us with her teeth that she is simply thrilled to be reduced to a presence, a dress, a posture, she is often the target of harassment for her expression. There is an expectation of women in general and famous woman in particular to always assure the onlooker that they are happy to be looked upon through smiling, and Stewart rejects this.”
Women are expected to be nice and sweet, to make other people feel comfortable. A woman who says ‘hey, I think there’s a problem here’ is being ‘negative.’ A woman who doesn’t smile while she’s being harassed is ‘humourless.’ A woman who prefers to stay focused on tasks is a ‘cold bitch.’ Significant gendering is involved here; women have an obligation to look and act a certain way and when they don’t, they need to be hassled until they do.
ye girl, I feel your pain
wouldn’t believe how many random people tell me to fucking smile
Right? I’d have a panic attack up there.
I see the criticism of Lana Del Rey as an extension of this, people getting angry that she looks awkward when she performs and characterising her as this stone-cold distant weirdo when there are videos of her laughing in interviews and smiling with fans. I’ve seen lots of indie boy bands where the singer drawls into the mic, standing motionless and staring at the floor but apparently that’s just being cool. When she does it she’s a bad performer.
