Graduating high school isn’t the end of the world… unless you’re a character in @ko-op.com's Goodbye Volcano High, in which case it very much is!

Find out why I really connected with this game about musical teenage dinosaurs in my latest article 🎸🦖

Facing the End with Goodbye Volcano High

Dinosaurs and asteroids really need to work things out.

yeah I'm starting to think I might end up in the same place. It's all just so exhausting. We were watching that Fall of the House of Usher show for spooky month and every 20 minutes or so was just like... 20 seconds about the concept of buying clothes

Kyle McKernan @spacetreasured.bsky.social · 8d

every person involved in this should feel complete shame

Kyle McKernan @spacetreasured.bsky.social · 8d

like do I need another celebrity to tell me again that not only I can place bets on stuff whenever I want but I SHOULD be betting whenever I have a second of free time?

under-discussed aspect of living in 2025 capitalist society is the mental fatigue of being constantly inundated by scams. Watching my streaming service that ratcheted up the price and forced ads on me and having my scary movie get interrupted by a minute and a half of casino app commercials
