Two houses on my street have burned down within the past two years for this exact reason. It happens more frequently than I think people realize.

Used to be it was shit wiring or something. Now it's mostly stuff like this that burns down most houses now a days. Better safety and wiring standards over the decades has helped.

Don't ever run washers or dryers or dishwashers when not at home.

That's not warranted for the very very unlikely chance of that happening vs the impact that would have on getting chores done. Just keep your appliances well maintained and in good condition and then use them whenever it's convenient
