I really lack fundamentals, im 26 and people always say im smart but im only good at what im super interested in and honestly I moved a lot as a teen and was quite stubborn so I didnt really learn a lot here are sole things i know i lack:

I cant recall our US history well its very vague in my mind couldnt answer questions on it.

the states are questionable too, I could easily not know how close a state is to mine if its not right on the border of mine.

I totally forgot about the like how our world is broken up into central America, Latin america etc

politics are also tough i never really got footing on what to think aboit everything besides what I believe is right or wrong but not in a way that I could argue or understand fully whats going.

I just want to be educated. I dont know where to start but I want to be confident and able to carry a conversation about things thay matter and not feel like all my knowledge is very niche. I used to hate the idea of learning any of this and now im really lost at where to begin I just feel like I should know it all immediately so any advice on where to go and what to prioritize would be so helpful.

this is my second ever tattoo, I got my first at maybe 19(bug thigh piece). Anyways im currently quite drawn to weapons ive always wanted a sword or dagger on my arm however, ive veered more toward getting a flail first i just really like it and it made me think maybe I should get a weapon sleeve? I also want a scythe lol. anyways my question is could that look cool or should I go for different placements on ny body for the weapons?

I did see a cool leg tattoo of a flail. I think because I have a tattoo on my thigh already I want to offset it and have soemthing on the opposite side on my arm. I do also love those knee flowers people get I think theyre usually traditional style. im sure those may make me cry I heard that area is rough. Not sure if thats better to get as a filler later than have now.

I guess its all opinion and mine is the most important but id love to talk tattoos and ideas so I can feel confident going in I considered other options.
