It kinda seems like he's just feeding women to the apartment.

The apartment is the real girlfriend.

I can hear the laugh track in the last panel.

Pretty sure the cops won't buy that excuse...

Thus why he doesn't get help. Probably threatens to eat the neighbors if he doesn't come-home by a set time every night... like an abusive parent on all counts, now I think about it.

So, I'm guessing this is an allegory about society's attitude of "boys will be boys".

so we still cutting off authors?

I don't think that's the case here. This is an old webcomic that has been offline for many years called Pictures for Sad Children according to OP and Wikipedia. When I do a general image search for it, virtually none of the images I see appear to have a byline (except for one that appears to be a book cover), so it's looking like the original author published the individual comics without one.

According to DNAinfo.com, Veil spent $30,000 USD producing the 200-page hardcover book and even more to include a plastic-wrapped dead wasp in each copy, leaving little money for actual shipping.

They never put their signature on any comic. That’s why I put the credit in the text.
