People love to talk about their passions and their interests, but most of these are just sophisticated copes. You get invested in video games or sports or complex debates because you have no real power in the physical world.
The brain needs to feel like it is winning at something, so it creates a simulation of success through a hobby. If you were actually in control of your reality you would not need to escape into a fake one.
The more obsessed someone is with a niche interest the more likely it is that they are failing at the core biological metrics of life.
My niche is gooning.
