Long term holds? 15-30yr

I'm 22 years old and have recently gotten the inspiration to start investing young. I learned a lot through the last few weeks before i started going for it. I have a Roth IRA through Robinhood as well as my individual account through the app. not so much worried about my roth but for my individual account what long-ish term holds should i look for?

I have about 2k in my robinhood account that i put into SCHD ETF, P&G, SPY, (small amount into sony cuz why not) and General Dynamics (GD). As someone who isn't really interested in the day to day trading i just want to set it up correctly and forget it.

I understand that seeing me asking for long term holds and then saying i have money in sony and gd when they can both be equally volatile on different terms is odd. but just give me your honest opinion, any feedback. tear me to shreds if you have to.

last mention, is it odd to do longer holds in a taxable account? it does cross my mind on why i wouldn't just put all this into my roth if im looking that far down the road... but im guessing if later in life i need it i can have it, just taxable of course.

i've heard it's good that im starting so young, just obviously do not know nearly as much.
