You can allow or stop your dwarves from eating these mushrooms, but it's entirely optional and doesn't turn Dwarf Fortress into Dwarf hookah-smoking pad.

There was a surge, and it coincided with a great reduction in goblin raids, but now it's winding down.  General Rockus and Ambassader Cooker talked to Mayor Ironblood about it the other day, and particularly about a recent surprise goblin ambush.  Increasingly, the nobles want the Internet People to come home.  There's some question about whether we shouldn't be sending them after the skeletal elks instead though -- after all, those are what attacked us on Felsite/1/51.

Wow, you butchered it.

It's "Pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis"

Its state as longest word is debated, because it's not in common use, and it was created specifically for the purpose of being the world's longest word.

Avoid using an apostrophe to indicate a plural. The incorrect use of an apostrophe to form the plural is called the greengrocer's apostrophe, since grocers are often the worst (or at least the most visible) offenders. If you have more than one apple, then write apples, not apple's. If you cannot replace the word with "his," "her," or "their" and if it isn't a contraction, then an apostrophe should not be used.

HMR stands for Hazardous Materials Requisition, not Horrible Massive Ruination, though I can understand how one could get confused.

This is a fox skull helmet. All craftsdwarfship is of the highest quality. It menaces with spikes of fox bone and is encircled with bands of fox leather. This item is haunted by the ghost of Alfador Angrorung the fox.

Violence, naked force, has settled more issues in history than has any other factor, and the contrary opinion, that violence has never solved anything, is wishful thinking at its worst.
