I never bought from DollsKill because their merch is often overpriced and/or stolen designs on top of the brand being inherently insensitive to oppressive topics and racist while appropriating other cultures strictly for fashion purposes.
It is widely known within the alternative fashion community that Shoddy Lynn has terrible opinions and morals and most people who were/are aware distanced themselves a long time ago from supporting the brand whether they were customers, designers/vendors, photographers or models.
Hopefully after seeing what this brand truly stands for on such a high level people will finally open their eyes and stop supporting them. You can buy directly from the brands they partner with instead! DollsKill does not deserve the 3.3 million followers they have.
They have tried to backpedal and fan the flames but it is too late. DollsKill and Shoddy Lynn must not be forgiven. This is not a one time ordeal. This is a brand known for controversy on such topics.
Do not return to support DollsKill when BLM is no longer 'trending'. Do not buy from DollsKill when everyone else begins to 'forget'.
I unfollowed them on all social media. I hope you do too.

I AM LOSING MY MIND
Steven's not Cookie Cat, Lars is
Lars being killed, then resurrected and turned into the same magical being that lion is has been hinted at since the very first episode of Steven Universe. It’s been in front of our eyes this whole time.
Lets first look at the Lyrics for cookie cat and analyze it:
“Oh, he’s a frozen treat with an all new taste
Cause he came to this planet from outer space”
Lars attitude completely changed once he was on the ship, and on homeworld. From admitting his cowardly ways, to standing up for himself, protecting his friends, and showing his appreciation for everything he didn’t appreciate before. “Frozen treat with an all new taste” symbolizing his cold attitude before, with who he is now.
“A refugee of an interstellar world
But now he’s at your local grocery store”
A refugee is defined as a person who has been forced to leave their home. Lars was taken from his home, unlike Steven who surrendered himself.
“Cookie Cat
He’s a pet for your tummy
Cookie Cat
He’s super duper yummy
Cookie Cat
He left his family behind
Cookie Caaat!”
“He left his family behind”, yes both Steven and Lars did leave their families behind. But Lars didn’t willingly leave his family behind like Steven did. Steven left his family behind to protect them. Steven probably feels a great satisfaction knowing that he’s not the cause for his family’s danger anymore. Lars probably feels more torn, and upset by leaving his family behind. A family he didn’t appreciate before. Also Lars seems to feel guilt for leaving Sadie behind when he could have protected her. So I feel this applies more to Lars then steven.
Now lets look at the first ever scene in the series:
the scene starts off with Steven yelling no! And his dramatic reaction to the loss of his beloved Cookie Cat ice cream.
then proceeds to Steven being in denial claiming that it “has to be a dream”. So why so dramatic over ice cream? Because it’s not about ice cream. The scene symbolizes lars’s death in the recent episode off colors.
Steven calls out for Lars.
holds him, and continues to mourn for the loss of his Cookie Cat. So why hold Lars? Someone who obviously is busy stocking, and clearly rejects his affections. It’s because Steven holding him tightly hints at the recent events that just unfolded in the previous released episode.
Then the next frame Lars addresses that cookie cats have been replaced with Lion lickers. I believe this hints at Lars (Cookie Cat) changing into the same magical being that lion is (being represented as Lion Lickers)
I’d like to point out in the next frame that Lars describes cookie cats as “wimpy” which is particularly odd that he chose that adjective to describe cookie cats. He could have said stupid, lame, gross, etc. any typical insult. He chose “wimpy” how does Lars see himself? Lars does not view himself in very positive ways. He does see himself as a coward, scared, everything that a wimp is.
Lars continues to say “why don’t you make some with your “magic belly button”. Which I also find odd to some extent. Being that we needed to address Steven, and his gem origin at some point in the episode, but why would Lars address it in that way? Why is Lars the first to address Steven’s gem, and gem abilities? Not someone else? Someone with better understanding of gems? I might be reading a little bit into this, but I think this is foreshadowing Steven healing Lars much like Lars is claiming that Steven heals Cookie Cat, and bring cookie cat back with his “magic belly button”. Much like Steven does with Lars. Reviving Lars after he died with his magical healing powers.
Next Steven describes cookie cat as having a crunchy exterior, which sounds like who? Lars pretends to be tough, and have a rough exterior to impress people like the cool kids. Which also goes into his style. His tough-looking graphic tees, his edgy haircut, even his gauges. I believe he does all of this to make him look tough. So that he can “fit in” and look cool to the cool kids.
Then Steven describes cookie cat have a creamy inside. Much like Lars who plays it off like he’s this cool tough guy, but inside he’s this soft, pampered kid with a loving family, who loves to bake. Who has genuine feelings that he tries to hide for people. Who cares, and has more bottled up emotions than anyone could have figured.
Then Steven brings it back to mourning of his cookie cat. Claiming that cookie cat was “too good for this world”. Why so much emphasis on the loss of cookie cat? Why so dramatic? Why make it seem so literal for the death of cookie cat? It’s because cookie cat is really just Lars.
Also id like to point out cookie cats mixed colored eyes. Something about that reminds me of Lars’s scar over his eye.

My T4T flag!
The most popular t4t flag I saw was made by a panphobe/demiphobe and nah fam- we don’t roll with that at all. So, I made my own!
The colors come from a “colors of love” palate!
#cbb2ff (a bluish purple to represent masc trans folks)
#fea0ff (a pastel pinkish purple for feminine trans folks)
#fdfd96 (A very soft pastel yellow for neutral/nonbinary trans folks)
The color yellow is also apart of this flag as green and red are both colors of love and mixed they create a yellow color!
Anyone is welcome to use!
