Matthew Rossi

Matthew Rossi @MatthewWRossi — Matthew Rossi is a synapsid, perhaps descended from Cynognathus. He was born in Providence, Rhode Island, and grew up there before leaving to see the world and be mistaken for a sasquatch and/or minor singing celebrity in various locales. He currently lives and writes in Edmonton alongside his amazing and beautiful wife and their cats. He’s written three collections of speculative fiction, Things That Never Were, Bottled Demon and At Last, Atlantis. He loves playing warriors in World of Warcraft, barbarians in Diablo III, and he’s beginning to notice a pattern here.


The Queue: Therizinosaurus

Also known as Therizinosaurus cheloniformis this species is one of the most fascinating and unique of the known dinosaurs. The name means reaping lizard or scythe lizard and much like the other members of its family, it was likely either a heavily herbivorous omnivore or an outright herbivore. Therizinosaurus was the largest (to date) of its family, and possessed six foot long claws on its forelimbs. It walked upright on two legs like other theropods but presented a more rearing posture in order to make use of those massive claws (they far exceeded its smallish head in size).

This has nothing to do with Blizzard or its games. I just love dinosaurs. Anyway, let’s talk about those games. Or dinosaurs. Hey, Blizz, put a dinosaur into Overwatch. Preferably one with power armor. I also like power armor.

 


The Queue: My nightmare come to life

So yesterday I went in for my second ‘Matt gets needles driven into his eyes’ session. Already, you can see why I’d have had a rough day. So then I decide to get The Queue written for today, and what’s the big header image? A gigantic eyeball monster.

This is The Queue. I had to look at a giant eyeball monster less than six hours after I had both of my eyes stabbed. I’m kind of freaking out over here.


The Queue: Music, for I am Erich Zann

No, I’m not. I mean, sure, everyone else is appointing themselves things. But I’m not. I’m just me. Listening to music, looking over yesterday’s Queue for questions to answer. Hopefully I’ll get this done in a manner that satisfies you all.

Today’s header image is my warrior on the Alpha. That sword is ridiculously oversized on a Tauren Male.

Let’s talk Blizzard games. Or maybe I’ll snap and talk about dinosaurs. It’s always up in the air.
