For anyone who likes The Clique's "Superman" made famous when R.E.M. covered it, the upbeat revision "Supergirl" by @shapeslikepeople.bsky.social is the Friday boost you needed.

Is there anything like the hope of a new generation? One beautiful Eastern Bluebird egg. She'll lay one per day until there are five in most cases and then start incubation. #birding #kansascity

Just saw the video for The Lightning Seeds 'Pure' on 120 Minutes. Reminds me of the crush I had on a girl who worked at the Turtles Records in Augusta, Georgia 35 years ago. We bonded over the band, but she rejected my date offer when I got the cassingle. I was such an idiot. 😏 #music

Seeing UK college-rock icon Robyn Hitchcock play a solo show this afternoon with about 250 people was fantastic. Having him finish the show with a stroll around the venue in a singalong with the crowd to a Beatles song was a treat. The experience won't soon be forgotten. #music #kansascity

I've noticed a pair of Eastern Bluebirds checking out the nestbox over the last few days. Yesterday was first time I've seen the female carry any nesting material, so took a quick photo when both birds were away. Curious on progress I checked again this afternoon. Busy bird! #birding #kansascity

Yellow Grosbeak found yesterday in Arkansas, making it possibly the easternmost occurrence of the species. This is the normal range map. What in the world?! #birding

Totally fulfillng my musical itch this morning is this new gem from @shapeslikepeople.bsky.social. The Rickenbacker is chiming, the harmonies are sweet, and it just works for me. Bonus points for the Close Lobsters t-shirt in the video. #newmusicfriday

Kansas City is really slippery now with the ice building. It's going to be a good 36 hours to hunker down, journal, listen to music, and catch-up on delayed chores. #mowx

Remembering the brilliant Benjamin Curtis today. Can't believe it's been 11 years since T-cell lymphoblastic lymphoma robbed us.

Love the dreamy feels of this Connor Youngblood track, "Bear River Migratory Bird Refuge," as it fits my Friday morning vibe. He's a great multi-instrumentalist deserving of more exposure. #birding

Still puzzling over my Spotify Wrapped. I wouldn't have expected Ned's Atomic Dustbin to be my top artist. Maybe The Church or School of Seven Bells, but not NAD. I'm guessing 1992 Steve would've approved.
