Necroticism 

1991 album by a legendary English death metal band Carcass. Arguably, their best.

Full album title is "Necroticism — Descanting the Insalubrious", but most don't dare trying to pronounce that, let alone memorize it.
"Descanting" means "talking about something in detail and for a long time", while "insalubrious" is a synonym for "rotten", "sickly" or "putrid".
Newbie: — Hey, I wanna get into death metal a bit, any classics you'd recommend?
Metalhead: — Can't go wrong with Necroticism by Carcass!

necrotism 

1. The practice of earning a specific position or office on the coattails, reputation, or based on the fondess for a dead relative.
2. Being favored in some way due to a familial relationship to a beloved person who is now deceased.
3. The practice of "keeping" a deceased relative "alive" officially for financial or professional gain and benefit.
1. After Rep. Sonny Bono died, it was no surprise he was followed in office by his wife Mary Bono. Political necrotism is a tried and true way for the people to feel like they've kept a bit of the person they've lost in office.

2. Jack's Dad is such a legend around here, they jumped at the chance to send him up the ladder. Never mind that the old coot is dead, Jack will be CEO one day thanks to the blatant necrotism.

3. Grandma died years ago, but through the magic of a little necrotism, my brother and I benefit from her monthly social security check to this day.

Neuroticism 

But you said (in a discussion with your daughter) that being low in neuroticism makes narcissists worse.
Hym “So how does that not apply to psychopathology? If neuroticism is the marker for psychopathology, how does low neuroticism not make the psychopath worse (thereby making them ‘fearless’ in your own words)?”

The grindset is a contemporary ideology of self-exploitation disguised as strength, deeply tied to the aesthetics of the “sigma male” and to new digital forms of patriarchy. It promotes the idea that human worth depends on productivity, economic success, absolute emotional control, and the ability to work endlessly, turning vulnerability, rest, community, and tenderness into signs of weakness. Beneath its rhetoric of discipline and power often lies a profound inability to relate healthily to pain, fragility, and human interdependence.
“That’s the grindset, brother. While weak men sleep and complain, sigma males stay disciplined, work in silence, suppress emotions, and build power while everyone else wastes time chasing comfort.”
