Anonyme asked:
"hello susan b! do you ship internationally for commissions?"

yes! here’s the commissions page i have set up for now (it’s a skeleton; i’m revamping everything after finals week is over)!

i dont have a set price for international shipping because it varies, but it’s usually between $3.00 to $6.00?

i ship usps (first class) with a letter envelope, usually the weight is no more than 0.6 oz

thanks for asking! *:°・☆ヾ(δ_δ。)

"Do commissions mean the person who requested it paid for you to draw it?"

susan sitting on the sidelines for this whole fight until someone brings up jehan prouvaire

its because hes hugo code for gay thats my baby boy i gotta fight homophobia for him 

i remember clearly the deaths of three men. one was the richest man of the century, who, having clawed his way to wealth through the souls and bodies of men, spent many years trying to buy back the love he had forfeited and by that process performed great service to the world and, perhaps, had much more than balanced the evils of his rise. i was on a ship when he died. the news was posted on the bulletin board, and nearly everyone received the news with pleasure. several said, “thank god that son of a bitch is dead.”

"wow you go to harvard???"

please kill me

at harvard we dont say “i love you” we say “write a fourteen page paper on the over-medicalization of health and its effects on the socioeconomic gradient of individual agency and institutional holism with particular regards to cognitive constructs of medical diagnosis (which is in itself a social construction) and non-clinical iatrogenesis in six hours” which roughly translates to “fuck sociology please kill me why did i challenge myself” and i think thats beautiful
