    I’m pretty sure this is actually talking about the lack of motivation for activities that are done “because I said so” for children, or “because that’s how things are done” for adults.

      I’m probably autistic to some degree. I’m definitely someone who always rejected “because I said so” and that’s all my parents ever seemed to want to say to me. Just a lifelong struggle of people refusing to explain things.

      “because I said so” for children, or “because that’s how things are done” for adults.

      inertia. inertia of habits. no reason, no argument, just inertia. dead, lifeless, uninspiring inertia.
