Shaun has a takedown of the entire series on his channel, and this is one of my favorite parts:

so our heroes decide to decorate their decapitated slave heads with little Christmas hats...

now I'm gonna need to hit pause here, next to the Christmas slave heads, and ask: what is happening right now... why are the Harry Potter books like this

not my absolute favorite quote either. long video but definitely recommend; even Shaun's extremely dry delivery breaks at a couple points: https://youtu.be/-1iaJWSwUZs
