Pottermore's poop tweet reminds us that wizards are gross
Pottermore recently resurfaced a wizarding world fun fact that has Harry Potter fans losing it on Twitter. Pottermore reminded fans – or in most cases, informed them – that before plumbing, wizards used to "relieve themselves" literally anywhere and then magically vanish any excrement.
...oh.

And an obvious snag in this method of magical mess-cleaning: What about magical children too young to vanish their business? Harry and his classmates don't encounter a Vanishing Spell until their fourth year of school, which feels extremely late to learn how to clean your own shit. Perhaps the Hogwarts curriculum prioritized this spell more before toilets.
