unmomentous
Not worth noting
Unmomentous describes something lacking significance or importance—the opposite of momentous.
Events, decisions, or occasions that are unmomentous pass without consequence or lasting impact: an unmomentous meeting that changed nothing.
The word often carries gentle irony, acknowledging that most of life consists of such unremarkable moments.
