You do not need to wear a uniform to get into Berghain. The bouncers, above all, are looking for interesting people who they believe will add something to the mix rather than just go there to consume and gawk. There really is not much to co

Shrewd shopkeepers know the AMEX deal – higher transaction fees, potential chargebacks, etc. Even when they do accept it, I feel bad giving my AMEX to a small business, especially when I'm abroad. Accepting AMEX is common at a high-en

Individual actions like these feel good for people, but don't really make much headway on the broader problems. For example if you are vegan, you are not directly supporting the factory farming of animal products, but meanwhile people
