Main comic: A woman with wavy brown hair stands between two tall green bushes, clutching the sides of her head with a stunned, exasperated look. A small red beetle clings to the bush at lower right. She says sarcastically, "Well I am just SOOO sorry my home, food, and unborn children got in your hair a little. I hope you EVER RECOVER." The joke: a spider whose web (its home, food source, and egg sac) got brushed out of someone's hair is melodramatically guilt-tripping the person. Votey: A black-and-white close-up of the spider lying on its back, legs splayed, declaring with grief, "I NAMED THEM! EVERY LAST ONE!" — doubling down that the destroyed eggs were beloved, named children.
