So much going on in the world right now, but remember that you have friends. Get together when you can. Reach out if it's been awhile or just because. We'll get through this together and make things better. #musicforthe2ndcrisis

Three grey and white birds walk upright down a brown dirt road with their crests on display. Their bills and feet are orange, their feet are large, and they are unafraid to strut their stuff.

And totally agree with you that there are so many cool birds to base character design. If it were me, I'd probably try to design something around the kagu:

I suspect it's the eye focus. Shoebills have more forward-facing eyes than most, look like they're looking right at you (they are), that they're contemplating whether they can eat you (they are), and you don't scare them. All things that make execs go "ahah, a great creature design!"

Also: Skexis.

2/ And speaking of cheering up and having some quiet moments of appreciation, today's #musicforthe2ndcrisis is also a reminder of the joy in seemingly simple but surprisingly complex little things. Take time to notice the details. Refresh your spirit. It all matters.

1/ It's Friday, I'm tired, and I think we could all use some cheering up. Let's have some #bloomscrolling, shall we? Local bluebells to the rescue. I believe these are Spanish bluebells. Look at the shading on each individual bell. They're glorious. #flowers #garden

Bluesky's having problems today, the US President is demonstrably suffering from dementia along with his immense spite, and the Republicans are picking fights with the Pope on his behalf. Everything is nuts, so today's #musicforthe2ndcrisis is appropriately madness.

Today's #musicforthe2ndcrisis is the first band repeat on the list. I hadn't planned on repeating artists if I could avoid it, but Moya Brennan passed away. What a lifetime she gave us. Take time to recognize joy, beauty, and kindness, and bring what you can.

Today's #musicforthe2ndcrisis is a welcome GOODBYE to both Orban and Swalwell. Good riddance, may their crimes fully come home to roost upon them both, and may there be much more ousters and roostings to come.

Today was a great day for making a nice pot of soup. I happen to love making soup, whether it's entirely from scratch or with helpers like boxed broth. Today's soup of choice was a beef mushroom barley. It was delicious, and will be even more so tomorrow. #cooking

While this is far and away his most famous song, Peter Schilling has a fantastic catalog of music. Error in the System and Things to Come are both fantastic albums - particularly impressive as they were his English translations of his original German works!
