Susie is a fantastic character for a million reasons but another one is that most portrayals of eating disorders are a skinny fem girl worried she isn't pretty enough or less often some autistic twink that lives off of coffee. Susie very obviously has pica and likely heavy food insecurity from poverty/neglect and we see it often whenever she interacts with food. She is also an awesome baddass butch lesbian who learns the power of friendship. You don't see characters like that with eating disorders very often and it's great representation
