gambling is kind of degenerate, but it's also true that gambling 'addiction' is fake, and that the 'solution' to problem gambling is literally just 'stop fucking gambling, retard.'

i'm moving closer to the stoic/epictetean view that 'addiction' is fake and that willpower actually is all you need to 'overcome' your 'problem.' note that addiction being fake is not the same as saying that addiction does not exist; you can reconstruct something called 'addiction' from the behavior of so-called 'addicts.'

however, their behaviors are ultimately volitional, which means that their problems are fundamentally self-inflicted, which means that those problems are analytically distinct from problems imposed externally.

It's also not even fun. There is probably an order of magnitude between the max amount I'd be willing to bet at a time and the min amount that would make me excited to win--say, a couple hundred bucks vs. a couple thousand. And the house always wins if you don't have an angle.

And yet the amount of suburban millenial dads doing it regularly is astounding and concerning. When I get together with my friends on, say, a random Wednesday, a big portion of the guys will be comparing which bets and parlays they have going on MACtion--plus other, random sports they're not even watching--while placing other bets on their phones.
