Index
This is a list of interesting tags that I use or intend to use within this space.
High Level Tags:
Larger structures describing the kinds of writing on this blog.
#essay A piece exploring an idea, enough to make a point.
#longform A longer piece that digs into an idea at some level of depth. May or may not be an essay or a form of poetry.
#linkvomit Somewhere between an essay, a bulleted-list, and poetry – Usually consists of a collection links where they simultaneously explain a narrative, but also use the links as part of the narrative structure.
#poetry “ab·strac·tion” – Explorations of ideas but in the form of various kinds of poetry.
#metaphor “re·ca·pit·u·lation” – Ideas explained with other ideas.
#draft “i·dea vom·it” – Something that got to the point of being somewhat publishable despite not being a complete idea. Usually its because I don't see an easy way to wrap up the idea and it's been incubating too long.
#archive “void” – Older content that I've put here to reference, but not really something I consider featured.
Areas of Exploration
Tags that describe various interests and topics commonly explored in this space.
#politics “copro·phage” – Explorations on political topics, usually it is meta-political, but occasionally there are bits of actual politics. * I consider this tag to be an infohazard due to potential for triggering arguments. Tread with an open mind.
#ants “jag·lav·ak” – Anything about ants because I love ants.
#microbe Explorations of the microbiome and related.
Research Interests
Particularly focused explorations on a topic that could be considered part of the same narrative corpus, I consider these to be akin to “sequences“, but as unordered sets vs of ordered lists
