Great leaping lizards! That is the HUGE block of categories and tags you assigned to a single post. You are spamdexing and that must stop right now now or Google and Bing will hurl your indexed post links into the great abyss for tag spamming.
All reasons for non-appearance of posts on Topics pages can be found here > http://en.support.wordpress.com/topics/#missing-posts
As you have assigned a combined total that exceeds 15 Categories/Tags to your posts, you need to edit and delete. http://en.support.wordpress.com/posts/edit-posts-screen/ After removal of the excess categories and/or tags note it may take several days for your posts to begin displaying there.
It’s search engines that send a significant flow of traffic to blogs and they can choose to bury your content where the sun don’t shine for tag spamming so get rid of the practice now.
The rule of thumb is to assign the least, not the most, combined number of only relevant categories and tags that accurately describe the post content.

I’ve been blogging for about three years, I think, and no one ever explained this tagging thing. It took me a lot of time to put in all those tags. I certainly wouldn’t have done that if I had understood. Are you telling me that I must go back to each blog post (all have multiple tags) and delete tags? I also did not know that only 15 tags were allowed. In fact, after I put in my tags, and publish the post, WordPress offers me several other possible tags that I might want to use.

You do not have to remove categories and tags but what I said still stands. If you wish to use bulk delete to remove the excess or not that is up to you.
P.S. It wasn’t WordPress.com that provided Tag suggestions it was a third party partner ie. Zemanta which has now been removed. https://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/removing-zemanta-integration?replies=1

You would be well advised to delete extra tags and categories, at least on your most recent month’s worth of posts. And do not use that many in future.
We say this several times a day in the forums. If you’d like to get greater exposure for your blog, do a search for the terms “SEO” and “more readers” and such in the forum and you’ll find a lot of good suggestions.
