“When You Pray in Silence”

Posted on December 17, 2024 by admin

This article is based on this Dutch article of Martijn Benders

When you pray in silence
And see our Jesus stumble
Awaken, light a fragrant candle
And use life as a dagger

A cover of Death in June – Accidental Protégé

I am your accidental protector
The gift, the blood
The discarded
The discarded
The discarded…

The silver chain is broken
Goals and dreams are filled
With emptiness and instinct
With impurity and will

I am your accidental protector
The grave of love
The yesterday
The discarded
The discarded…

In this year of three winters
Where orchards fade,
fade and fall
fade and fall
fade and fall (fall, fall, fall)

Like freshly baked
bread of love
That is discarded

Discarded
The discarded…
The discarded (discard, discard, discard, discard)

Castles Get Kicked in the Bricks each Summer

Let’s face it: some backpacks just carry your stuff. This one tells your entire life philosophy in one ridiculous, multilingual joke. Imagine strolling into a museum, a bus stop, or your ex's new wedding—with a bag that declares, in ten languages, that castles are always the losers of summer.

Why? Because deep down, you know:

  • Tourists always win.
  • History has a sense of humor.
  • And you, my friend, are not carrying your lunch in just any nylon sack—you’re carrying it in a medieval meltdown on your shoulders.

This backpack says:

  • “I’ve been to four castles, hated three, and got kicked out of one for asking where the dragons were.”
  • “I appreciate heritage sites, but I also think they could use a bit more slapstick.”
  • “I’m cute, I’m moopish, and I will absolutely picnic on your parapet.”

It’s absurd.
It’s philosophical.
It holds snacks.

In short, it’s not just a backpack—it’s a mobile monument to glorious collapse.

And honestly? That’s what summer’s all about.

Philosophy thirts

Feeling surveilled? Alienated by modernity? Accidentally started explaining biopolitics at brunch again? Then it’s time to proudly declare your loyalties (and your exhaustion) with our iconic “I’m with Fuckold” shirt.

This tee is for those who’ve:

  • Said “power is everywhere” in a non-BDSM context.
  • Tried to explain Discipline and Punish to their cat.
  • Secretly suspect the panopticon is just their neighbour with binoculars.

Wearing this shirt is a cry of love, rebellion, and post-structural despair. It says:
“Yes, I’ve read Foucault. No, I will not be okay.”

Stay tuned for more philosophical shirts and backpacks, as we at Benders are working on an entire collection that will make even the ghost of Hegel raise an eyebrow.
