the planet venting because pressure, like feelings, always finds an exit.

means the movement of magma and gas from a planet's interior to its surface, building mountains, islands, and the occasional bad Tuesday.

from from vulcan, the roman god of fire and forges, whose workshop was said to sit beneath mount etna; geologists borrowed the name once they realized the earth had its own furnace.
