Spontaneity necessarily temporalizes itself or becomes fixed as in-itself being

Evidence

If time is ‘the being which, in being, is not and in non-being, is’, then this also means, rigorously put: ‘Time itself is not what it is.’ Time is not always (simultaneously, successively, and permanently) the same as itself. The concept of time has its own moments: it differentiates itself and thus temporalizes itself. — Catherine Malabou, The Future of Hegel, 254 (#expands, via linked claim)

Temporality. Subjective process whereby the For-itself continuously lives its project of nihilating the In-itself. Through temporality the For-itself sets up its own measure for the duration and self-identity of things. Time is not in things but flows over them. The For-itself as what it has been (Past) is a flight (Present) toward what it projects to be (Future). — Jean-Paul Sartre, Being and Nothingness, 1524 (#corroborates, via linked claim)
