RE: Df seems like it’s getting more popular
So I pulled up the google trends for “dwarf fortress” to check this and the results are VERY interesting.
It seems like interest is leveling off again with spikes here and there, and it’s definitely a lot less than 2015. I’d love to get your thoughts on some of the peaks and valleys.

RE: Dwarf stress over time.
I wonder if the Adams Bros. Have encoded ideas of the impact of stressful events changing over time and repeated exposure.
