fecklessly
In careless fashion
Fecklessly means in a way that lacks purpose, initiative, or effectiveness.
Someone who acts fecklessly drifts through situations without taking responsibility or making meaningful effort: He fecklessly squandered his inheritance on failed schemes.
The word carries a note of contempt for weakness or incompetence.
