unbudgeable
Refusing all movement
Unbudgeable describes something or someone that absolutely cannot be moved or persuaded.
A boulder may be unbudgeable, but so may a person's conviction: She was unbudgeable on the question of her daughter's curfew.
The word emphasizes futility—whatever effort you apply, it won't work.
