"[T]hese digital tools are portrayed as innovative and so easily attract the attention of policymakers and investors [and] could be promoted by their governments as the way forward..."

With the exception of bowls that have had porridge in, surely. Rather than expect it to wash stuff that's like dried concrete, a quick rinse doesn't hurt?

Because at that time, unlike leaders everywhere else in the world, he had absolutely nothing else to occupy him? I find this really hard to believe

Might house/pet sitting be a way of escaping the hostels, even if just for a while? I've not tried it myself so can't personally vouch and don't know how easy it is, esp. in London... but for e.g. www.housesittersuk.co.uk

"A neuroscientific perspective on consciousness might tell us something about its neural correlates, but is unlikely to tell us much, if anything, about the nature of thoughts or the textures of experience... So what might we learn... if we gave more weight to the view from inside the experience?"

Just seen a sparrowhawk close up (less than 2m away from me) in our backyard, and it was magnificent but... it had one of our blackbirds in its talons and I couldn't save it 😭
