I came across the 'Draped Seated Woman' on a recent visit to Tate Britain. Henry Moore created her in 1957-8. It's closer to being figurative than a lot of his work, and it fits particularly well in this minimalist, grey setting.

A large, bronze statue sits on grey steps on a wooden floor. The statue is an impressionistic rendering of a seated woman with cloth drapery.

Thank you - I've been there, and it's a great place. You can also get an authentic Yorkshire pudding in the cafe, as I recall.

A loosely-themed seaside picture today. I'm often astonished by things I see on the beach. I cannot begin to imagine what ancient forces and events combined to produce such beautiful marbling, but then I'm not any sort of geologist...

Turns out that Jim Ratcliffe, billionaire pusher of plastic nurdles that are diminishing fertility and generally metastasising human health is even more of a toxic shit than I thought he was

That President Zelenskyy, who is fighting a war where children are being killed, injured, and stolen all the time, would take time to think about the community of #TumblerRidge is truly heartrending. Thank you, President Zelenskyy. Solidarity with the people of Ukraine!

Social media post by Volodymyr Zelenskyy
@ZelenskyyUa
“We are shocked by the news of the shooting at a school in Tumbler Ridge, Canada. When children are killed, no one should remain indifferent. Such tragedies
should never happen anywhere, in any country in the world.

We hope that all those who were injured will recover quickly. On behalf of all Ukrainians, I express our sincere condolences to the families and loved ones, to all Canadians, and to Prime
Minister @MarkCarney.”

The trend is irreversible’: has Romania shattered the link between economic growth and high emissions?
Emissions have plunged 75% since communist times in the birthplace of big oil – but for some the transition has been brutal

Apparently there were 8.2738 billion people on planet Earth on February 9th 2026. (https://nationsgeo.com/population/)

There are twelve Zodiac signs.

This means that 689,483,333 (and a third!) people are all having the same day!

Astrology: You know it makes sense. (Not!)😂

I sometimes think that oak trees are more interesting in the winter. Here's one I encountered on a recent walk.

As usual, February is proving something of a lemon. It's no coincidence that it's the shortest month - best to get it over and done with as soon as possible...
