Anybody frogposting in 2022 should be banned without a warning.  You're either /pol/ diaspora shitting up the blue boards or you think frogposting is funny.  Either way you should not be tolerated anywhere.

Such hatred and intolerance based on your own personal bigotry over humor. You really should be ashamed but I bet you feel righteous. This is why I say to let the idealogues have their hatred they revel in so much. They have built up an entire ethos to allow themselves to label and hate freely without societal recourse. Shame to waste all that work over morals.

It always bewilders me how people get so righteous, especially over the magical frog. [..]

Everyone, even people not from the usa, knows what it is associated with and what it is a dog whistle for, lets not pretend otherwise.

Being from the USA does not make someone more knowledgeable about net culture than people from other countries.

OP;
Just let them sterotype people into a group they don't like based on assumptions they make so they can exclude them and move on. It's fine.

I like to plan a surface fort that will eventually double as an obsidian casting mold. Force all dwarves to live outdoors until they have perfected the entrance and hollowed out a good section of the fort proper. Moving year is busy.

If it gets defeated actually hauling the body to the incineration chute seems like a more insurmountable task.

Purge the necros, the cursed ones have brought bad frames upon us!
Take arms! For the King! Get the scales!

I don't like my main entrance(s) to pass through soil. I like obsidian and planning out significant fortress features before ever digging into sub-surface rock.

The dwarves had to live and work predominantly out under the weather behind and on top of ugly silty clay walls sleeping (and being entombed) in increasingly cramped quarters constantly building stress and walls.



Ten years later the fruit of their (max 60 pop.) labor was a smoothed obsidian monolith with four entrances once again welcoming all migrants (pictured from a later date with equipment used to wage the arboreal war)



Each tower is intended to house a different death trap. The only 'completed' one makes magma mist. Bridges direct traffic from each of the four drawbridge entrances through the trap(s) or down towards the fort. Access to the courtyard is from deep within the fort.



A few levels below the four entrances converge where more bridges can re-direct invader flow back into the traps if needed.



From the center of the circle ramps lead a few more levels down to the welcome center. The bridges are over an 11-z drop but are more for re-locating corpse parts and death items out of the traders' sight and closer to their disposal zones then inflicting enemy damage.



A few more levels down the entrance passes through the main barracks which is sandwiched by the library and the tavern where foreigners are permitted.



The expense of the rough adamantine bridges is to mitigate the possible damage done by Fortress Defense Mod's hellfire imps' hellfire breath vaporizing bridges while the military is fighting on them.
Once the arboreal war has been won a ring of animal watch towers is planned.

The human pikeman Xugot Unacoko isn't so much trapped as he is imprisoned for being a vampire and draining one of the few living dwarfs to death in that little double-flooded bolt-hole fort. Carelessness during the flooding emergency let him get out of his cell already but fortune kept him on the right side of the walls.
