On Any Given ONTWelcome to the Thursday night ONT. Well, we're almost halfway through October, that means Halloween is getting closer. Do any of y'all have any plans? Are you planning on wearing a costume? If so, what? What Happened To Cars? Take a look at the pictures below, one from 40 years ago and one current: The contrast is pretty stark. I then thought about it, and my current car is black, and before that I had a gray car, black before that and silver before that. When you see a brightly colored car these days, it stands out. So what happened? When did we go from the brightly colored past to the dull gray-black-silver-white world we live in today? Oh, and look at the bottom left of the top picture. Two VW Sciroccos side by side. I know I'm biased (it was my first car), but I absolutely love the angular body style that was so common back then. The Mark II Scirocco was just about perfect. Look at that. Isn't it gorgeous?
In Western democracies, government is designed to represent the people, not rule them. At some point, our elected officials decided that they would prefer to be masters rather than servants, entangling themselves with corporate leadership in a moldering rat king of stifling bureaucratic fiat and decree.
Taiwan death from COVID-19 vaccination exceeds death from COVID-19
And that's it for COVID coverage tonight. Y'all Come On Down, Hear? Want to move to Texas? Well, you're not going to believe this house in Dallas. They just dropped the price by $50K too! It's a perfect pad to hang out with Hef and the bunnies.
Pretty cool. I must admit, it would be cooler if it played Pink Floyd, but I suppose suddenly hearing “I'll see you on the dark side of the moon!” as you're about to crash could be disconcerting. Common Sense Corner

Of course the Tuskegee Experiments were a horrific stain on America's history, but that was 90 years ago. Everyone involved is long dead. Why do things done long ago get harped on so much (we all know why, it's to sell then narrative that America is an irredeemably racist country) while current policies, policies that are exponentially worse for current Americans, policies supported by people currently alive and in office, are ignored? What's even stranger is that the guy writing the article is a lefty, or at least I assume he is from this paragraph: For most of my adult life, I was sympathetic to the progressive liberalization agenda. In the late 1990s, I worked with organizations funded by George Soros and others to decriminalize drugs, give clean needles to addicts to prevent the spread of HIV-AIDS, and subsidize housing for the homeless. But as drug deaths rose, and the drug-fueled homeless problem worsened, I decided to take a closer look at the problem.
