Recently my usage the Internet(tm) has gone way, way down.
The things that I used to waste my time with, I've all but
abandoned. Social media has no current draw for me; I'm
experiencing more of a repulsion in that sphere. The "news"
is anything but, and the propaganda is tiresome.

I've stepped away from Google for search. When I need a
resource, I either access it directly, or I use duckduckgo.
I phlogged about this elsewhere, so I won't talk about it
much.

Maps? I'm not currently going anywhere that I haven't gone
before, so I haven't had a need. I can't recall the last
time I mapped my way somewhere. I need to travel more- and
I need to do it with paper maps mostly. For my own mental
health. I did purchase a 2018 atlas, so hopefully I'll get
to use it.

I'm not sure what the point of this post is, other than to
wonder why it is that my internet usage has gone down so
much. I'm of course not counting my ssh or gopher usage in
all that; my gopher usage has gone up, my ssh usage is about
what is has been for a while.
