What's your favorite fun fact you know about rats? I need to be educated on their wonderfulness 🐀

You'd be shocked how little a Rat Union president could know about rat biology

Did you know that mice can have curly fur (not rats but close enough I hope)?

I don't have facebook but here is a picture from there!

As for rats,

this is the closest I got to finding a curly haired rat

Also I know that rats, or one rat specifically, can bang out the tunes 🐁🐀

TIME FOR RAT LORE

RAT LORE SITE IS LIVE

This SHOULD have been posted when it went live on May 30th, the date of Rat Lore Con 2026, but I've had the most mad dash weeks since then of pain, projects, a fest, & more!

So WHAT is Rat Lore & how does it relate to anything again?? Well, it's a dubious Lore & project web that deals with Rat Lores featuring centrally some familiar Rats that have already appeared in Mythoslain (Veracity Rat & Mendacity Rat) as companions of one Xidobo Ktikov. Rat Lore originally came to be very early on in Mythoslain's legitimate lifespan/development, just over a month into pre-planning for what it would become now. They were conceptualized as a side bit that oh so rapidly became a fixture of the comic when they slotted in so beautifully with Xidobo's whole deal (which is also elaborated on in connection with the Rats in a dedicated zine about them).

BUT WHAT IS THE RAT LORE SITE? The Rat Lore site is simply another platform to house all the assorted Rat Antics including all the zines I've made about them from specific Lores & origins to my Quiet Year hack accidentally designed at my bday party in January & the first issue in a series of educational zines w/ comics about literary theory concepts. Those last two are completely free to read/download on the site! You can also read each of the three Rat intro zines free too on their dossier page, but it's a mess I need to fix as of the time of posting.

Everyone is welcome to engage with Rat Lore & explore its dubious contents. I eagerly welcome offerings/entries to the Lore of any kind to display in the Legends section of the site & you can get a digital Rat Goodie (or a physical merch if you're local!)

It’s a dark day in rat history, Soufflé is too old to share the knowledge of how to escape the free roam cage to his younger acolytes. Now they believe climbing up my sleeves is the only escape.

Ever wondered who this freak in the banner of my Tumblr main is?

This is the rat, a 3D model I made in 2022. I didn't give him a name other than "the rat" so that's just what I call him. He was designed to resemble early 3D graphics (for some examples of what specifically he was inspired by, see this Tumblr post), and I think he fits that vibe pretty well. Below is bonus rat content.

This is a video featuring the rat. The animation isn't very good, but neither is the rat, so they compliment each other.

Here is an image of the rat which was initially going to be used as a favicon for a page on my website, but was instead left unused.

The site logo that appears on the aforementioned page.

Some behind-the-scenes photos from when the rat was being made.

And free pfps I guess????? I don't know why I did this part.
