explanation
I drew this shortly after reading the headline about the woman in Texas who drowned her three children in a bathtub. It's the sort of thing that makes me worry slightly about the future of the human race, like some biological imperative we thought was trustworthy turns out to be more subjective than we thought, or faulty, or both.
