希望永存，而在新年决心的领域里，这一点再真实不过了。

Hope springs eternal, and that is nowhere more true than in the realm of New Year's resolutions.

我们再次回来，为自己设定2026年的目标。

We are back again to give ourselves goals for 2026.

因为我们相信问责制，所以我们会告诉你们我们2025年的决心执行得怎么样。

And because we believe in accountability, we'll tell you how well we stuck to our resolutions for 2025.

我是史蒂文·汤普森。

I'm Steven Thompson.

我是琳达·霍姆斯。

And I'm Linda Holmes.

今天，我们将在NPR的流行文化快乐时光节目中讨论新年决心。

And today, we're talking about resolutions on pop culture happy hour from NPR.

今天加入我们的是我们流行文化快乐时光节目的另一位主持人，艾莎·哈里斯。

Joining us today are our fellow pop culture Happy Hour hosts, Ayesha Harris.

你好，艾莎。

Hello, Ayesha.

你好，琳达。

Hello, Linga.

还有格伦·韦尔登。

And Glenn Weldon.

你好，格伦。

Hello, Glenn.

嘿，伙计。

Hey, pal.

好吧。

Alright.

你知道这是怎么进行的。

You know how this goes.

我们来看看去年的决议。

We look at last year's resolution.

我们看看它进展如何。

We see how it went.

然后我们看看明年的决议。

Then we look to next year's resolution.

格伦，是的。

Glenn Yeah.

我们先从你的2025年决议开始。

We're gonna start with your 2025 resolution.

我想听听你的决议，然后问你它进展得怎么样。

I wanna hear it so we can then ask you how it went.

所以我要做的甚至不是一个类型。

So what I'm gonna do is not even a genre.

它是电影的一个特点。

It's a feature of movies.

我会看长电影，因为众所周知，我们经常抱怨电影太长。

I'm going to watch long movies because lord knows we complain a lot about movies going on too long.

但那些至少在口碑上被认为配得上其时长的电影呢？

But what about most movies that reportedly, at least, earned their duration?

我说的是四个小时以上的电影。

I'm talking about four hour plus movies.

我的意思是，《残酷剧场》只是稍微松开了瓶盖，现在我要真正深入了。

I mean, the brutalist kind of loosened the jar, but now I'm gonna dig in.

我会主动寻找那些因为片长而我一直回避的电影。

I'm gonna, seek out films that I've avoided because of their length.

《淫荡女人》、《卡洛斯》、《小杜丽》、《幸福时光》。

Nymphomania, Carlos, Little Dorrit, Happy Hour.

我要找到这些电影。

I'm gonna find these movies.

我要清空我的日程，让2025年成为我让电影带我进行一场漫长旅程的一年。

I'm gonna clear my damn schedule, and I'm gonna let 2025 be the year I let movies take me for a extended ride.

这不会花太久。

Well, this won't take long.

我要给这部片子打个不及格。

I'm gonna slap a failing grade on this one.

不好意思承认，这件事根本没发生。

This didn't happen, I'm ashamed to admit.

但我要为自己辩护一下，这件事没发生是有非常充分的实际原因的，这个原因极大地影响了我未能实现这个决心的程度。

But I will say in my defense, there's a very good substantive logistical reason it didn't happen, something that factors hugely into my failure to execute this resolution to the extent that I hope to.

这有点复杂，但我还是会试着解释一下。

And it's a bit complicated, but I'm gonna try to explain it anyway.

我想你可能会说，技术上讲，我就是完全给忘了。

I suppose that you would say the technical term is I I plum forgot.

哦，嗯嗯。

Oh, uh-huh.

对。

Yeah.

就是忘了自己说过要这么做。

Just didn't remember that I said I was gonna do it.

所以听我分析一下。

So follow my logic.

我没做。

I didn't do it.

对。

Yeah.

我对这一点并不感到自豪。

And I'm not proud of that.

这感觉像是个人的失败。

It feels like a personal failing.

我对此毫无借口，但确实没有。

I have no excuse for it at all, but, yeah, no.

我本没打算这么做。

Didn't set out to do it.

我确实没做。

Didn't do it.

我看了一些很长的电影，但并非故意的。

Saw some long movies, not intentionally.

你以为看一部包含触发点和记忆闪回的长片会怎样？那你可就错了。

You'd think watching a long movie with triggers, memory dumps is like, you'd be wrong.

我一直不太擅长坚持这些决心，但这次是第一次彻底失败、彻底跌倒，我要坦然面对。

I've never been great at keeping these resolutions, but this is the first full beefed it abject failure face plant, and I'm gonna own it.

你知道吗，格伦，这样做的好处是，就像《美丽心灵的永恒阳光》那样。

You know, the nice thing about that, Glenn, though, is that, you know, the eternal sunshine of the spotless mind.

你一整年都没有责备自己。

You spent the entire year not beating yourself up.

这是真的。

This is true.

嗯。

Yeah.

嗯。

Yeah.

如果你

If you

是个新生儿，你就不会是那个。

were a newborn baby, you wouldn't be the one.

今年发生了这么多其他事情，你知道吗？

There were so many other things happening this year that you know what?

我会给你一些宽容，因为我们挺过来了。

I'm I'm gonna give you some grace because we made it.

我们活下来了。

We survived.

我们确实活下来了。

We did survive.

我们做到了。

We made it.

我们都还在。

We're all here.

我们都聚在一起。

We're all here together.

我只是忘了。

I just forgot.

好吧。

Alright.

那么今年你打算忘记做什么呢？

So what do you have on tap to forget to do this year?

我会把问题往后拖。

I will kick the can down the road.

2026年，还是老样子。

In 2026, same deal.

我会看长电影，并且不会忘记，因为失败能磨炼品格，能催人奋进。

I will watch long movies, and I will not forget to do it because failure builds character, and it lights a fire under your butt.

所以，没错，这就是我的目标。

So, yes, that's my thing.

2026年，我会像2025年那样没能做到的那样，去看长电影。

In 2026, as I failed to do in 2025, I will watch long movies.

格伦，我能推荐一个帮你实现这个目标的工具吗？

Glenn, can I recommend a tool that you might use to help you with this?

他们发明了便利贴。

They have developed Post it notes.

如果你有一支笔和一张便利贴，就写上‘看长电影’，然后贴在浴室镜子上。

If you have, like, a pen and a Post it note, write long movies and not stick it to your bathroom mirror.

或者贴在电视上。

Or your TV.

嗯。

Yeah.

就看长电影。

Just long movies.

嗯。

Yeah.

贴在我密码旁边。

Next to my password.

对。

Yes.

不。

No.

对。

Yes.

对。

Yes.

我不会那样做。

That I'm not gonna do that.

我很感激。

I appreciate it.

史蒂文。

Steven.

你知道吗，史蒂文，当你提到你认识一个可能对格伦有帮助的工具时，我以为你会说的是某种特别舒适的沙发垫，因为他要看四个小时的电影。

You know, Steven, when you said that you knew of a tool that might help Glenn, I thought you were gonna be talking about some kind of extremely comfortable sofa cushion if he's looking at four hour movies.

我以为是什么样的人体工学

I thought it was some sort of ergonomic

痔疮坐垫？

Hemorrhoid donut?

对。

Yeah.

没错。

Exactly.

某种符合人体工学的座椅装置。

Some sort of ergonomic seating device.

好的。

Alright.

非常感谢，格伦·韦尔登。

Thank you very much, Glenn Weldon.

我接下来要发言。

I am gonna go next.

哦，让我们听听我去年的决议。

Oh, let's listen to my resolution from last year.

我决定今年要多读一些非虚构作品，特别是散文。

I decided that I want to read more nonfiction, specifically essays this year.

我想让这个成为我今年的阅读重点，因为我的一部小说将在二月出版。

I wanna make that what I'm reading this year because I have a novel coming out in February.

它叫《广告插播之后》。

It's called Back After This.

故事发生在音频世界。

It takes place in audio world.

所以如果你对播客感兴趣，可以找找看。

So if you're interested in podcasts, you can find that.

但我正在考虑是否想写一些非虚构作品，比如一些随笔或评论类的文章。

But I am thinking about whether I would like to write some non fiction, perhaps some essay type things, some criticism type things.

因此，我想大量阅读这类作品。

Therefore, I want to throw myself into reading a lot of such things.

你知道吗，格伦·韦尔登，我人生的目标之一就是多像你一点。

You know, Glenn Weldon, it is often one of my goals in life to be more like you.

我真的很钦佩你。

I really admire you.

这是我们中的一员。

It's one of us.

我长期以来一直钦佩你，既作为一个人，也作为一位作家和评论家。

I have admired you for a long time, and admired you as a person and as a writer and critic.

为了效仿你，我立下了这个决心。

And in my effort to emulate you, I made this resolution.

我走出录音现场，就再也没有想过这件事。

I walked out of the taping, and I never thought about it again.

整整五秒钟，我都没再想过它。

Not for five seconds did I think about it again.

是煤气泄漏了吗？

Was there gas leak?

发生什么事了？

What happened?

这里到底怎么回事？

What's going on here?

我不知道。

I don't know.

我不是建议人们像《记忆碎片》那样在身上纹身，但他们有记号笔。

I'm not suggesting people tattoo themselves Memento style, but they they have Sharpies.

好的。

Okay.

发生的一件事是，在这次录制之后，当我谈到自己未来可能写散文的愿望时，我意识到我还有一部小说必须完成。

One thing that happened is that I realized after this taping and when I talked about my own desire to potentially write essays someday, that I had another novel that I had to

写。

write.

你看，

There you

好了。

go.

看到了吧？

See?

所以，我并没有准备好立即做出这个转变。

And so I wasn't necessarily prepared to make that pivot right away.

是的。

Yeah.

这就是我所说的借口。

That's what I call an excuse.

这是个不错的借口。

That's a good excuse.

这是个很充分的借口。

That is a solid excuse.

嗯。

Yeah.

嗯，管用。

Well Works.

但我不认为这是借口，说我自从说完之后就再也没想过这件事。

But I don't think it's an excuse for never having thought about it again ever after I said it.

嗯。

Mhmm.

有时候在这些事情上，我会模仿艾莎。

Sometimes in these things, I copy Aisha.

这次，我学的是格伦，我说了这句话，然后就再也没想过它，一次都没想过。

This time, I'm copying Glenn in that I said this, and then I never thought about it ever again, ever, ever.

所以我没那么做。

So I did not do that.

我得了零分。

I get a zero.

彻底的零分。

Absolute zero.

拇指它

Thumbs It's

好的。

okay.

再说一遍，2025年是关键的一年。

Again, 2025 was a year.

我只是这么说而已。

I'm just saying.

谢谢，妈妈。

Thanks, mom.

我的意思是，你就是这样，所以我

I mean, this is you're so I'm

很高兴

so glad

我们都在为你付出。

we're all giving you.

我们勉强熬过来了。

We muddled through.

那

That

我们确实做到了。

is We did.

这是一场胜利。

That is a triumph.

我们真的做到了。

We really did.

我们成功了，各位。

We made it, you guys.

我们

We

真的做到了。

really did.

我确实一直在写这部小说。

And I did work on writing the novel.

所以，知道吗？这是件好事。

So, know, that's a good thing.

这是件积极的事。

That's a positive thing.

关于2026年，这又是一个阅读目标，而当我设定它时，我并没有想到自己刚刚没能完成一个阅读目标。

In terms of 2026, it is another reading resolution, which when I made it, I wasn't necessarily thinking about the fact that I had just failed a reading resolution.

但这一次，我希望会稍微容易实现一点。

But this one is a little bit, I hope, a little bit more doable.

我今年想读五本通常不会读的书。

What I wanna do this year is I wanna read five books that are the kinds of books that I don't usually read.

我指的不只是那些不在我最喜爱类型里的书。

And I'm not just talking about, like, they're not in my exact, like, favorite genres.

它们不只是封面有卡通人物的浪漫喜剧之类的书。

They're not just, like, rom coms with cartoon people on the front or anything like that.

我指的是那种我一看见就会觉得‘不适合我’的书。

I'm talking about, like, the kinds of books that I look at, and I say, like, not for me.

比如封面有龙的书，或者讲吸血鬼的书，或者其他类似的东西。

Like, maybe something with dragons on the cover, or something with vampires in it, or something else.

我想说明的是，目前我并不在寻求推荐，因为我希望这件事保持轻松，而不是带来压力。

I do wanna say, I am not at the moment seeking recommendations because I would like for this to remain non stressful as opposed to stressful.

我会慢慢摸索着完成。

I will muddle through.

别这么做。

Don't do it.

别光是按兵不动，或者别光是等着你的龙。

Don't just hold your horses or your dragons.

琳达，你希望有人提醒你这个预测吗？

Linda, would you like to be reminded of this prediction?

不。

No.

我不希望有人提醒我这个决心。

I would not like to be reminded of this resolution.

我不是。

I am not.

那不是我想要的。

That is not what I'm looking for.

但我确实想稍微拓宽一下我的视野。

But I am looking to expand my horizons a little bit.

所以是五类我通常不会读的书，我觉得我会一看就想到，哦，这不太像那种适合琳达的书。

So five books of types that I do not usually read, that I think I would look at and think, like, oh, not like that's bad, but like, oh, that's not really a Linda book.

那些我会觉得不适合琳达的书。

Things that I would think of as not a Linda book.

只是因为我觉得你得不断尝试新东西。

Just because I think you gotta keep trying things.

拓宽视野。

Broadening horizons.

喜欢。

Like it.

听。

Hear.

听。

Hear.

嗯。

Yeah.

所以，Ayesha，我们要听一听你的年度目标了，嗯。

So Ayesha, we are going to listen Mhmm.

关于你去年的目标。

To your resolution from last year.

我想写小说。

I want to write fiction.

就是这样。

There we go.

对。

Yeah.

这事儿我从高中以后就没再做过，也许吧。

Which is something I've not done since I was in high school, maybe.

我只是在某个时候停了下来，心想：好吧，我不写了，我要当评论家，我就要做这个，我要写非虚构作品。

I just, like, at a certain point, I just stopped and was like, okay, no, I'm gonna be a critic, and that's what I'm gonna do, and I'm gonna write non fiction.

我现在意识到，我缺少了那种创意出口，缺少了我内心那个富有创造力的方面。

And I've realized now that I'm missing that creative outlet, that creative side of me.

我通过舞蹈和其他方式表达过，但我怀念以前写大量《保姆俱乐部》同人小说的日子，我会写很长的故事，打印出来装订成册，还做漂亮的封面和插图。

I've expressed it in other ways through dance and whatever, but I'm missing when I used to write just, like, lots of Babysitters Club fan fiction, and long stories that I I would print out and then bind, and and had like a nice little cover, and I had illustrations.

我不会再去做所有那些事了，但确实会……

I'm not gonna be doing all that, but like, I do

等等。

Well, hold on.

你可以直接从你停下的地方继续写。

You could just pick up where you left off.

嗯，我当然不会再写《婴儿宇宙》同人小说了。

Well, yeah, I'm not gonna be writing baby spacecraft fan fiction.

但我脑子里确实有很多想法，可能是因为看了太多电影和电视剧，总在想：这个不错，但我希望故事能从这个视角展开。

But I do have a bunch of ideas that have been scrolling in my head, I think, from watching so many movies and TV shows where I'm like, this is cool, but I wish it was, like, from this perspective.

或者我觉得这里缺了点什么。

Or I feel like there's something missing here.

正如人们常说的，如果你没看到它，那就去创造它。

And, you know, as they say, if you don't see it, create it.

没错。

Exactly.

我最好试着写一个剧本。

Preferably, I wanna try and write a screenplay.

我们看看会怎么样。

We'll see how that goes.

模块。

Module.

太棒了。

That's great.

太喜欢了。

Love it.

好的。

K.

嗯，我们这里情况一样，因为哦。

Well, we're in the same boat here because Oh.

当然

Definitely

问题是这样的。

here's the thing.

问题是这样的。

Here's the thing.

和你们、温达和格伦不同，我是那种无法忘记这件事、一直被它困扰的人。

Unlike you, Winda and Glenn, I am the type of person who cannot forget this and has been haunted by this.

这就是我的大脑运作方式，艾莎的一天。

This is the way my brain works, a day in the life of Aisha.

我醒来。

I wake up.

我工作。

I do work.

我说，天哪。

I say, oh, man.

我真的很想写那个剧本创意。

I really wanna work on that screenplay idea.

我出去喝点酒什么的。

I go out for drinks or whatever.

我跟某人聊聊。

I catch up with someone.

他们问：你最近在忙什么？

They're like, what are you up to?

我说：嗯，你知道的，我一直在想这个剧本创意。

I'm like, well, you know, I've been thinking about this screenplay idea.

我聊它，不停地聊它。

I talk about it, and I talk about it.

然后我回家，

And then I go home,

然后我想：天啊，我只想再看一集《妙探追凶》，然后睡觉。

and I'm like, oh, man, I just wanna watch another episode of Murder, She Wrote and go to sleep.

嗯。

Mhmm.

然后我就这么做。

Then I do that.

接着我又醒过来，重复同样的流程，每天都是这样，Pinky，试图征服世界，只不过我不是在征服世界，也没准备好剧本。

And then I wake up again, rinse and repeat, the same thing we do every day, Pinky, try to take over the world, except I'm not taking over the world, and I'm not ready with screenplay.

基本上，我在二月只花了一个下午的时间来头脑风暴这个点子。

And basically, I spent exactly one sort of afternoon session brainstorming this one idea in February.

它发生了。

It happened.

它发生了。

It happened.

从那以后，我谈论它的时间远多于实际执行它的行动，这一直困扰着我。

And then since then, I've done much more talking about it than I have of actually executing anything about it, and it has haunted me.

但这确实是一个正在进行的项目。

But that's an active project, though.

当然。

Sure.

但阿伊莎，我们共同点是我想要谈论已经完成的事情。

But I what we have in common, Ayesha, is I want to talk about having done something.

当然。

Sure.

我不想去做那件事。

Don't want to do the thing.

我想谈论我已经做完了它。

I want to talk about having done it.

是的。

Yes.

说实话，写我的书时就是那种感觉。

That's kind of what it was like writing my book, to be honest.

嗯。

Yeah.

这个过程简直是一种折磨。

That the process was torture.

事后的感觉是：天啊。

The aftermath was like, oh, man.

我做到了。

I did that.

但如果你花了一个下午来头脑风暴你的想法，并且已经创建了任何笔记、想法、材料，可以用来工作、发帖，或者在手上涂涂画画，等等。

But if you have spent an afternoon brainstorming your idea, and you have created anything in terms of notes or ideas or material that you can work with or post its or scribblings on your hand or anything like that.

而且，你还告诉别人你在做这件事。

And on top of that, you are telling people that you are doing it.

你有一个正在进行的项目，朋友。

You have an active project, my friend.

我明白你的意思，琳达。

I hear what you're saying, Linda.

但我不同意，因为根据我的经验，当我跟别人谈论一个项目时，我的大脑会以为我已经获得了实际写作所带来的那种释放感，于是项目就飘在空中，而不是落在纸上。

I disagree because in my experience, I'll just keep it to me, when I talk about a project to people, my brain thinks I'm getting some of the release of actually writing it, and the project goes into the air as opposed to being on the page.

所以当别人问我你在做什么时，我通常会说：

So what I tend to do is when people ask me, what are you working on?

我告诉他们我在做点什么，仅此而已。

I tell them I'm working on something, and that's it.

他们能理解，因为如果我把任何内容公之于众，谈论这个想法，并得到他们的反馈——是或否，他们都会假装很喜欢它之类的，

And they understand because if I release any of it into the world and talk about the idea and I get their feedback about yes, no, and they all pretend that they love it or whatever.

那么这项工作就不会发生在它该发生的地方，这纯粹是我个人的体会。

That work isn't happening where it needs to be directed, and that's just for me.

所以格伦和我现在

So Glenn and I have now

给了你们完全相反的建议，关于如何继续这个项目。

given you diametrically opposed advice on how to continue this project.

严格遵循两者的建议。

Just follow both to the letter.

请记住，我们俩今年都没完成自己打算做的事。

Just remember, neither one of us got done what we were gonna do this year.

嗯，有

Well, there

没有。

is not.

所以你可以根据这些信息决定你愿意听哪条建议。

So you can decide based on that what advice you would like to listen to.

这感觉非常治愈。

That felt very therapeutic.

谢谢你们两位。

Thank you to both of you.

所以我的决心是，显然不再多谈，而是直接去把这事做了。

So my resolution is to obviously stop talking about it so much and actually do the damn thing.

你在这里。

You're here.

我要补充一点，我并不指望写完一部完整的剧本，但我希望到2026年底时，至少写出一个场景。

And I'm going to make the caveat that I do not anticipate writing an entire screenplay, but I want to at least, by the end of 2026, have written a scene.

好的。

Okay.

而且

And

酷。

Cool.

这就是我的目标。

That is my goal.

一个场景，只要在纸上写出一些东西，让我能指着说：这就是创意的萌芽。

A scene, just something on the page that I can point to and say, there's the germ of an idea.

无论它最终是否真的实现都没关系，但至少我尝试了我从未真正尝试过的事情，这就是我2026年的决心。

And whether or not it ever actually comes to any sort of fruition is fine, but at least I attempted to do something that I have never actually attempted to do, and that is my resolution for 2026.

想象一下，当我们播放你这么说的这段录音，然后你却说：我其实已经写了两个场景，那该有多令人兴奋。

Just imagine how exciting it's gonna be when we play this clip of you saying that, and then you say, I actually have written two scenes.

没错。

Exactly.

好的。

Okay.

让我们别着急。

Let's let's hold our horse horse's hand.

但没错，当我真的写出来时，我会感觉很好，因为如果我不写，它又会困扰我，让我夜不能寐，思考我到底在做什么。

But, yes, it's gonna feel good when I have, because if I don't, it's, again, going to haunt me and make me lie awake at night wondering what am I doing with my life.

所以，是的。

So Yes.

是的。

Yes.

我们可不希望那样。

Well, we don't want that.

写作太糟糕了。

Writing is terrible.

写完之后的感觉很棒。

Having written is great.

是的。

Yes.

听。

Hear.

听。

Hear.

好的。

Alright.

太棒了。

Awesome.

非常好。

Very good.

谢谢，艾莎。

Thank you, Ayesha.

史蒂文·汤普森。

Steven Thompson.

我不知道这是否会以某种方式继续下去

I wonder if this is gonna continue in any kind

某种主题。

of of theme.

如果

If

你感受到了某种主题。

you're getting a sense of a theme.

关于我们是谁以及什么让我们感到沮丧。

Of who we are as people and what frustrates us.

请继续。

Please go

七个主题。

to seven themes.

加入我们。

Join us.

好的。

Alright.

让我们听听史蒂文2025年的决心。

Let's hear Steven's resolution from 2025.

我2025年想重新拥抱那些能给我带来些许社群感和快乐的社交媒体。

What I'd like to do in 2025 is reembrace social media that bring me some measure of community and joy.

我保证，我终于会开始在我们节目结尾推广的Letterbox账号上发帖了。

I promise I will finally start posting to the Letterbox account that we've been promoting at the end of of of our of our shows.

过去几个月我一直用Blue Sky。

I have been on Blue Sky for the last couple months.

我想更深入地使用它，因为我真的很享受它仍然令人愉快的部分。

I wanna lean further into that because I'm really enjoying the parts of that that are still enjoyable.

基本上，我想重新承诺以一种能拓展视野、增加我所接收的视角、让我信任的人推荐给我的内容更丰富、让我信息更灵通、让世界感觉更广阔、不那么封闭的方式使用社交媒体，同时依然找到方法维持比以往更健康的网络习惯——毕竟上次我频繁使用社交媒体时，这些习惯并不总是有的。

Basically, I want to recommit to social media in ways that expand my horizons, increase the number of perspectives I'm receiving, the number of things that are being recommended to me by people I trust, keeping me better informed, making my world feel bigger, less insular, while still finding ways to maintain the healthier Internet hygiene that wasn't always there the last time I was on social media as much as I'd kind of like to be.

我想找到方法利用它来管理我的焦虑，而不是加剧它，这在社交媒体上真的很难做到。

What I wanna do is find ways to use it to manage my anxiety without exacerbating it, which is a really tricky thing to do with social media.

所以，Blue Sky 和 Letterboxd，我完全投入了。

And so Blue Sky and Letterboxd, I'm committing completely.

另一部分是，我不只是说说而已，我确实打算在2024年完成这本儿童读物。

And the other part of this is instead of just talking about it, I do intend to actually finish the children's book in 2024.

好。

K.

我不承诺签订出版合同，也不承诺在2025年出版，但我确实想在2025年和女儿一起创作艺术，我想不出还有什么比这更有趣的承诺了。

Not committing to signing a book deal, not committing to publishing it in 2025, but I do want to actually spend 2025 making art with my daughter, which I cannot think of a more fun thing to promise to do than that.

各位，Steven，你干嘛这么紧张啊。

Y'all, why Bated breath, Steven.

我有没有想过，承诺多花时间在社交媒体上是一件健康的事？

Did I think that spending more time on social media was a healthy thing to promise, to resolve.

公平地说，你可能没料到今年会这样。

In fairness, you didn't necessarily see this year coming.

嗯

Well

我应该更新我的Letterboxd页面吗？它现在简直是个空壳。
