‘Mom and Dad’’s Discrepant Defense Against Stale Industry and the Population Problem A “fun” movie. The Earth will reach its maximum occupancy load (12 billion) when I am in my mid-fifities, meaning there’ll be more than twice as many gorging, shitting, shooting, complaining, and lying human beings than there were when I started, and perhaps Brian Taylor’s Mom and Dad is in fact a reasoned argument for a particular solution to our inevitable plight.

but no shards large enough to make out a face
