Madisyn—musician, gamer, and crocheter (though I reserve the right to have other interests)

I play for the choir at a UU church, but my “faith” is deism. Regularly found attending gaming events and craft groups. Occasionally seen playing at open-mic nights.

#introduction
It's been several weeks since I last played at Cure #openmic so working this week on adding a new Bond theme to my repertoire to play this Thursday. Don't know yet what the other piece of my set will be.

Ordered a #pianotuning kit and it arrived yesterday. 😍 I just finished tuning my #piano and it turned out pretty good for not having done any tuning in nearly 20 years. 🎹🎵👍 #music

I don't think I've noticed a single #election ad for Sears that says one damn thing about her qualifications for #governor or the positive things she plans to do for #virginia. ❌

Spanberger ads, OTOH, have actually told me why I should #vote for her and are not just focused on fear and hate. ✅

Working on putting together music for the 3rd Semi-Annual Art & Poetry Gala at the UUFP, so I probably won't do another #openmic this month. I have a special piece I'm working on to do during the winter holiday season, though.

Commendable, but kinda falls flat after the stink he made over seeing a same-sex couple with a child in a movie he took his grandson to see.

Just...wow! I truly hope Spanberger is our next governor. Even if you were to ignore Earle-Sears' anti-LGBTQ+ views, I cringe at the thought someone as disrespectful and rude as she is being in the top office for the state.

I hate having to get my car inspected. 😡 I essentially have to set aside the entire day for sitting at the shop and not expect to be able to do anything else. At least with my vehicle (as opposed to when I was using Mom's) I can go to a shop that doesn't have Fox News on.

#Eagles @ #Giants game tomorrow continues my experiment in #sportsbetting as a non-fan—small moneyline bets only on games where #nfceast teams play each other. Didn't do poorly in the first couple of weeks. If luck holds, I might increase the bet size and/or number of games next season. #gambling

Even more shocking than Schumer agreeing with one thing MTG said is the fact that she actually said something that had to do with governing the country for once.

Biggest tease in #gambling: the #videopoker machine shows 4 out of 5 cards for the royal flush after the redeal, especially when it happens multiple times in a sitting. Would it really be so hard for the RNG just to give it to me one of those times? #jacksorbetter

I'm a big fan of #policesquad and #thenakedgun movies, so I decided to check out the reboot with Liam Neeson today. So far, it looks like they've stayed true to the style and Neeson is great. 👍 (Initially, I thought it was going to be weird seeing Qui-Gon Jinn as Frank Drebin)

I can't believe how drained I was after #openmic last night. When I got home, all I had the spoons left to do was put on a couple episodes of #hazbinhotel and go to sleep. 😴 I even forgot to take off my makeup!

Going ahead and heading out to Cure to make sure I can get the spot on the list I want before going to choir rehearsal.

Taking a quick break from rehearsing to get some Ben & Jerry's and take a walk at Yorktown Beach. #yorktown #virginia

Putting the final touches on my set for tonight's #openmic. 🎹But it looks like the song I was most looking forward to doing is not quite ready yet. 😞 Oh well, there's always next time. Gotta figure out what to put in its place. 🤔 #music #musicsky

Good morning, Starshine. The earth says, "Hello."

Trying to figure out what to work on today so I don't end up spending the whole day playing games on my phone.
October 1, 2025 at 12:16 PM
Well, Tuesday evening means game night. 🎲 Wonder what we'll end up playing tonight. 🤔 I'm heading out to World's Best Comics and Games to find out! #boardgames #cardgames #tabletopgaming

As I get more comfortable with being out as #queer, I am noticing how much some of the movies and shows I liked when I was younger seem to actively promote a male-centric, cishet, coupled ideal of the world. It's fine if that's what you want, but there's no need to force it on me. #lgbtq #nonbinary
