incuriously
Lacking inquisitive interest
In an incurious manner—without interest or desire to learn more.
Someone who reacts incuriously to news accepts it passively, asking no questions: She incuriously flipped past the headline.
The word suggests a lack of intellectual engagement or natural curiosity that might otherwise prompt investigation.
