Jordan 6 Rings “Cool Grey”

[insoleunfiltered]

The Air Jordan Dynasty Collection via  @sothebys1744

Being one of the most revered athletes to ever live, it’s no surprise that many consider Michael Jordan to be the personification of greatness. And this is not without merit, as the living legend has earned many an accolade during his time in the NBA: 6 championships, 6 final MVPs, 5 league MVPs, and 2 Olympic Gold Medals. His legacy even spans beyond the court by way of Jordan Brand, which made history all the way back in 1985 with the Air Jordan 1.

In further celebration of Michael Jordan’s illustrious career — and the signatures that outfitted him along the way — Sotheby’s presents “The Dynasty Collection,” whose lots are comprised of the very sneakers that helped the goat take home his NBA titles.

Facing Magic Johnson and the LA Lakers, Michael Jordan saw his first NBA finals appearance in 1991, claiming his and the Chicago Bulls first title in a pair of Air Jordan 6s. MJ would continue to dominate in 1992 and 1993, wearing the Air Jordan 7 and Air Jordan 8, respectively. And following a brief retirement, the Air Jordan 11 would arm the Black Cat for his bout against the Seattle SuperSonics in 1996, which ended in a 87-75 victory. His Airness would then oppose the Utah Jazz in two consecutive years, thus closing out another three-peat: the Air Jordan 12 would join him in 1997, while the Air Jordan 13 and Air Jordan 14 would witness his very last championship in 1998.

Save for the Air Jordan 13, Sotheby’s “The Dynasty Collection” is made up of the above-mentioned sneakers, each worn by Michael Jordan himself. If you’d like to catch a look at every pair in-person, they’ll be on display at Sotheby’s Dubai from Feb. 27th to Mar. 3rd. More information can be found at Sothebys.com.

actually re: fromsoftware politics. i do think it's very interesting that the anti-colonialist RLF, ostensibly considered the 'good guys' of the game, were initially explicitly called the communist faction. armored core always has been a series critical of oligarchies and hyper-capitalism, but it's... very interesting to see just how blatant that is in ac6 specifically

you'd think that fromsoftware would eventually drop the ball on the "the ruling class will kill you and cannibalise itself in order to stay alive" considering that they're considered elite AAA devs rn, but thinking about elden ring and ac6's narratives, they've really only gotten more obvious about it - the horrors of colonialism and genocide and the sympathy given to the rage of its victims is something that's actually insane to see, to me, from such a big studio - fromsoft doesn't even attempt to be centrist about it.

for example, the frenzy flame ending. the only thing melina can tell you to dissuade you from pursuing it, ie literally destroying the world forever, is that there's still beauty in the world, apart from the suffering the golden order had caused. at no point however is the sheer despair of the people that the flame represents villanized. if anything, it's portrayed as a self-fulfilling prophecy, it is a tragedy. the only villain is the order who slaughtered all of these people, the flame of despair is something that emerged in them as they were buried alive. and the flame isn't even intended as a revenge upon the world, it's simply a means to end the pain they feel for being subjected to this.

their grief isn't something for the player to judge, it isn't something they're forced to overcome, it's simply a physical manifestation of the reality that was forced upon them. and these people, the merchants, are still kind to us, even knowing the order that we pursue. (in fact, the true, considered best ending of elden ring, is literally just sacrificing yourself in order to achieve complete anarchism. and getting a cool wife to endure the loneliness of space along the way)

in ac6 then, ayre is so terribly forgiving towards us, knowing what we are, knowing what made us, knowing what we participate in. some of this undoubtedly is because of her narrative role, she has to be a sympathetic character. but we do get to see her rage at the end, her grief for her species being seen as nothing more than a resource to be exploited or burned fully vocalized. but the RLF is sympathetic too as resistance fighters who want their home back. the only criticism the game ever leverages towards the RLF is that they're actually not radical enough in their pursuit of freedom, and that criticism is made by a villain.

it's so... i almost want to say optimistic? other games would have tried to pull a "ooh but what if the good guys did bad things (poor attempt at moral grayness)" but no, the RLF is justified at every step of the way. idk it makes me feel things. i dont particularly want to portray fromsoftware as these bastions of political correctness or sth - they're not perfect and i don't expect that ever lmao, but it's so fucking weird that their games are this progressive and have been for a long ass time.

Prompt 95

Captain Marvel, new Den-Mother (despite the fact he himself is a child even if the league isn’t aware of that fact) for the Young Justice team blinks. Klarion, so-called chaos lord, blinks back in the middle of a spell. 

He tilts his head. The other baby realms-being mirrors him. His own magic-fueled core pulses, and a chaos-core vibrates back. Oh. Ah. So that’s what’s happening. 

“They can’t play right now,” he explains to the barely-younger ancient-in-training, ignoring the team’s incredulous looks at his words with the practice of someone who had to deal with the voices of gods all the time. And Batman’s narrowing eyes. Scary. 

The chaos-core thrums in a distinct pouting-sensation, alongside a whine unique to young ghostlings. A whine that he replied with, even if only they could hear. Come play later, busy now, he insisted again, even if Klarion’s pouting was turning visible before it shifted to a scowl. 

“Fiiine…” And then the chaosling was gone, his familiar with him. Billy really wished he could join in disappearing, seeing the info-hungry look in the others’ eyes.
