Your code is correct: some_reference.order('kind DESC') is the correct way to
get the order you are asking for. Remember that if you only have three possible
values, the implicit sort of the members within each kind will probably be the
ID, all other things being equal. You should see the same behavior as if you
entered this explicitly:
some_reference.order('kind DESC, id ASC')
