When Humans Ruled The Earth

Stephen Ong’s video combines many of my favorite things: Rube Goldbergian machines, obsessive drawing, political commentary, toilet humor — and gets them to work together exceedingly well.  It’s one part Terry Gilliam, one part The Story Of Stuff, one part How I Met The Walrus, and every bit it’s own thing too.  Maybe there’s nothing I like more (today) than its “shape up or ship out” message delivered with ample humor.

    this is excellent thank you. and good timing. it's world population day today and the world as a whole is overpopulated by two billion - the difference between its actual population and the number it can support
    sustainably, given current lifestyles and technologies.
