tags
technically every page on this site functions like a "tag," and can be tagged in other pages which it then lists. but these are all the ones that are just primarily being used in that capacity, to group other pages. some have descriptions which elaborate on what the grouping means :)
tags are a big part of the #meta . they're like backlinks kind of - like when i make the choice between typing a tag (#meta) or a regular hyperlink (meta), the difference is that the regular hyperlink creates a one-way path from here to there, while the tag creates a two-way path by adding a link back to here on the other side. so tools for making different kinds of pathways - so the site can be navigated in a meandering and pleasantly labarynthine fashion, with the same material appearing in multiple conceptual bundles, for a kind of #adhd shifting-hallways of the mind palace effect.

tools
