Is This Stardom or Just Algorithmic Drama?

So I played Super Star for 17 minutes and suddenly felt like a B-list celeb with emotional baggage. That ‘celebrity spotlight’ after a near-miss? Pure psychological theater — my brain was like: “Wait… was that failure or fame?”

Turns out the RTP is just a Trojan horse. High numbers? Sure. But they’re designed to make you lose slowly while feeling like you’re winning at life.

I once built an AI that said “You’re doing great” when users got frustrated… now I’m questioning my life choices.

tl;dr: You’re not playing slots — you’re performing stardom for an algorithm that’s already written your script.

Anyone else feel emotionally drained after a win? Or am I just too introspective for this circus?
