Now that the year's almost ever, I can finally say what I've been thinking for months: this year in movies was mid. I have a few more on the docket through the rest of the year, so luckily the atrocious Five Nights at Freddy's 2 won't be the last thing I see in 2025.

Cub Foods yeah!! They renamed to Winco over here in Oregon

2025 is the year of this list

i'm so glad there are only 27 days left of the list

if you don't know already, the link for bath maniac blog in the internet places list is a 404. the zurac link works on my laptop but not my phone? not sure why that is. love your collections :-)

I have adopted snail into my friends

"greetings from hell" bahaha

Just adding a video of Isaac Mizrahi complaining about his garbage hole.

I've never made one, but my understanding is that the appeal is having a house made of gingerbread by the end.

it's messy because the materials are not easy to work with in a standard kit. if you get more expensive one or follow a recipe online, the materials (icing, candy, gingerbread) are easier to work with. but then you've spent $70 on an activity you may or may not like. My suggestion is to meet in the middle and get one of those kits but make your own icing.

I haven't made one in a long time because I'm gluten-free now and I can't enjoy it when it's done but I think for me mostly the appeal is in architecture. finding the right balance of placement where everything doesn't fall over and the creative process of "home decorations" with the candy. another way to make it fun is to buy candy you actually like.

Yes, out of a cheapo kit and to my surprise it turned out alright. My sister's did not. We called it a gingerbread crackhouse.

If you're an icing eater it can be worth it.

Maybe just gingerbread people instead? that seems like it would be easier and more fun to me

I have to say this is absolutely not making me want to make a gingerbread house lmfao

as someone thats been making even the dough from scratch (but never made a house yet), this makes me want to attempt to hilariously terribly freehand a gingerbread house or a few small ones. Experimental Architecture

yes, please do this and let us see!

I remember making a gingerbread house a few years back, I think it stood for a day or two and ended up collapsing... If I made one today I'd probably make a faux one with cardboard, paint, hot glue and whatever little scraps and trinkets are floating around my room

good idea! i do worry about what to do with it after it's served its purpose. it's easier for me to consider sliding a gingerbread house into the trash (where, arguably, they belong), but a trinket-filled cardboard house?? what to do with it?
