Stop Dark Mode on Safari
Safari 15.0 randomly gives me a dark mode menu bar.
How do I stop this?

The only time that Safari 15 will show you a Dark mode is if your System Preferences > General is set to Dark mode, or you have selected the Auto choice which will change Dark and Light appearances based on the time of day in your locale. If you want it always light, then click that choice. Or, if you have installed a third-party appearance mode tool that is still running, remove it.
Safari 15 also now adds support for theme color where web designers can force Safari and tabs to any color choice. If you want to avoid that surprise, visit Safari 15 Preferences > Tabs panel, and deselect Show color in tab bar, which Apple enables by default.
