                <!--The pattern you see here are some initial experiements to feed into my OSS project, Self-Defined. Self-Defined is my effort to make a dictionary to help people self-define, providing a more inclusive and thoughtful alternate to mass dictionaries, which often lack nuance with regards to gender, race, orientation, religioin, etc.
