Not sure where this particular house is located but in places like Spain and South America it's pretty common for houses to have tiled floors all over.

We get it you like circles!

The house was built in 1969. Circles were peak modernity back then!

I hatelove this house, you couldn't pay me a million dollars to live there but it is definitely achieving some kind of look....sort of like Flintstones porno set vibes.

I know there's a recent similar-sounding post but I think this is a different issue.

Someone with a racist username DM'd me very graphic porn and insults. Obvious troll is obvious yet I can't find a report button on DMs or the user's profile. Please help.

You're really living up to your username by bringing joy to those around you. I love your cats.

Back when I was a teen, my folks would go away for a month and a half every summer and leave us kids behind (we were teenagers and didn't want to go) and obviously we would throw parties. One year I had cleaned the house really well and thought there was no way they would know. My dad came home and that's how I learned he keeps two cold beers in the fridge for when he gets home. And they were gone.
He wasn't mad we threw parties, he wasn't mad we were underage drinking, but he was mad his two cold getting-home beers had been drank and not replaced. And that's how I found out my parents are humans who knew we were having parties and they didn't care as long as we didn't die or mess with their shit.

Not a tl;dr, just my favourite bits:

Organizers believed that the fear induced by the event would help increase fundraising objectives.

The campaign was publicized in local newspapers for a few days before the event, although the "invasion" took many citizens by surprise.

Dressing stations were set up at strategic points to treat the mock casualties; they also treated the two real casualties of the event – a soldier who sprained his ankle, and a woman who cut her thumb preparing toast during the early-morning blackout.

The city was renamed "Himmlerstadt", and Main Street was termed "Hitlerstrasse".

At one local elementary school, the principal was arrested and replaced with a 'Nazi' educator dedicated to teaching the "Nazi Truth"; special lessons were prepared for high-school students throughout the city.

If Day was successful enough to spark imitations in other communities. The US government contacted the organizing committee for details of the event. A smaller-scale invasion was staged in Vancouver, using promotional materials from the Winnipeg campaign.

The house is in Germany!

I want to give them the benefit of the doubt and say perhaps it's a deep freezer that is only opened occasionally, and I guess is pretty well sealed as long as it's closed.
The kitchen appears to have one of those built-in fridges that matches the cabinets:

Well, I don't disagree with you about what they did to Clone High, but Futurama's history with cancellations/reboots is pretty unique, and they've gotten pretty good at it.
When I first watched the one with Susan Boyle/Susan the Boil, I rolled my eyes because that was already old news when the episode came out. But upon rewatch, that episode did give us some great jokes ("Shut up and take my money!") and good satire.
They also sometimes do classic movie plots or "scary" episodes, and each season has an anthology. I for one am confident this season will be entertaining.
(also, I love the anthology episodes, sue me lol)
