I just don't understand boromir haters. Most of them likely haven't even read the books and just because he made a few mistakes in his life he's now unforgivable? They don't even have good reasons, it's just things like "o he tried to kill frodo" or "he was being selfish and wanted the ring for himself" like what?
He did not want the ring for himself. He wanted it to protect his people who very likely had the most damage because they are so close to mordor. And in the books he only commented about it once (except for the end). I love movie boromir but I hate how they make it this huge thing where he just constantly is thinking about the ring. Not to mention he was around the ring for at least two months. There were so many others who gave into the ring after only just seeing it. I think the ring was trying to specifically get him to try and take the ring. Seeing as it probably knew he was the most vulnerable to it because of everything else going on in his life (e.g his people and cities dying, the pressure from his father, everything with faramir, ect,)
Boromir is not a bad person. Yes, he makes mistakes, yes he's prideful. But that doesn't mean you can't forgive him, he repented, and without him where would the fellowship be? Aragorn wouldn't have known what happened to the hobbits, therefore Merry and Pippin would probably be dead. There's just so much he did for the people he loves, and if you think otherwise then that's your loss.
hope is a skill
TIL “Yankee Doodle” was written by the British to mock americans. “Doodle” is thought to come from the German “dödel”, meaning “fool” or “simpleton” and “macaroni,” a flamboyantly stylish type of dress, painting the Yankees as morons who thought placing a feather in one’s cap made them a “dandy.”

Dominika Wilk: "Connor Kenway—a real thorn in the British side during the Revolutionary War. He defended George Washington, eliminated some of the Patriots’ greatest enemies, and helped pave the way for the birth of the United States."
Hacker: "Sounds like a hero."
Man, I still can't get over that they actually acknowledged our boy as a hero in AC Nexus. And it's just...ugh. I feel that so much. It’s wild how one line—“Sounds like a hero”— can land like a punch to the chest when you've been carrying that love for him for so long. It’s like the franchise finally saw him the way some of us always did. Not as just another assassin, not as some angry young man, but as someone who sacrificed, who stood firm even when it cost him everything.
It’s the kind of line that doesn’t just validate the character—it validates you as a fan. Like, yes, you were right to see the hero in him all along. You weren’t imagining his quiet strength or the tragedy of his journey. The series looked back and said, “Yeah. He mattered.”
