bcs they were too stupid to use plumbing

IIRC it was because she was talking about what they did before there was plumbing? So it's because they were too stupid to use a garderobe. But the bigger question is why the fuck she thought it was an appropriate thing to mention at all? It's fucking Harry Potter. You'd expect that sort of thing from a story with a grimdark tone like George Martin's world. Nobody wanted that from her.

That last sentence is particularly appropriate here too. Nobody wants to hear her shitty views. Except, apparently, the Labour party. It'd be one thing if they agreed to meet with her, but actively saying they're seeking her out? Wtf Starmer.
