I was trying to get you to question the believe that lazyness is an evolutionary trait. Like the post you replied to said: Find the root cause of your lazyness.

Because it’s almost always not an evolutionary trait, it’s avoiding negative emotions. As you said: Doing dishes (bad) -> do nothing (good) But, with boredom, this would result in this: Doing dishes (bad) -> do nothing (good) -> boredom (bad)

Thus, we get negative emotions again. But we can avoid the final negative emotions by lying on the couch and spending energy looking at a screen. And our chain looks like this: Doing dishes (bad) -> looking at screen (good)

Because being bored is hard. If you want to see how hard it is, decide to just stare at a blank wall for the next 30min-1h instead and watch your brain fight this decision as hard as it can.

Thus saying “I’m lazy” and “being lazy is an evolutionary trait” results in “I can’t do anything about me being lazy”. And that is an easy way to avoid having to face and work through those negative emotions.

So then, which stimuli do you get and don’t get that make you lazy and, for example, stop you from doing the dishes?

If lazyness is an evolutionary trait to conserve energy, why do we get bored (pushing us to spend energy) once we do so?

Does your touchscreen still accept input? If it does, you can try locking your screen, pressing the power button (a non-brocken screen would turn on) and hold down both volume buttons to enable Talkback.

Talkback will read aloud what is visible on the screen. If you never configured it, it might be hard to understand depending on your language settings and the talking speed.

But with some patience you should be able to navigate to where you need to and enable the USB datatransfer to backup your data or navigate to the settings menu to enable ADB debugging for a full adb backup.

This is the saddest thing you’ve ever seen on this website so far!
