How can I use a vanity address as my main address Huh

This is a bad idea.

Satoshi himself explained that for increased security and privacy you should use a new bitcoin address for every transaction.

As an additional firewall, a new key pair should be used for each transaction

True that reusing addresses does harm your privacy and slightly harm your security, it is not advised.
But AFAIK, it still doesn't pose any risk to your bitcoin unless there are problems in your transaction signatures or ECDSA algorithm, or those on-chain gambling sites would have been gone.
