"Nobody gets paid, and nobody plays for all that much, either. Players receive neither prize money, world ranking points, nor international tournament qualifications; most teams pay their own way. The tournament organizers are also volunteers. Everyone shows up for love of the game—and they play and administrate it ferociously."

At Defector, read E.Y. Zhao on "washed ball" and the many storylines at this year's table tennis Nationals.

"We're in an upside-down world, one where someone can be obsessed with uncovering Jeffrey Epstein and his pedophile cabal, then vote a member of the Epstein cabal into the highest office in the land, and then happily go see a new Michael Jackson hagiography. No one knows the line anymore between enjoyment and endorsement, and no one wants to think critically about their choices; they simply want satisfaction at all costs."

"Yes, all the fathers are deceased. I wouldn’t blame you if you’ve never noticed—it’s not an obvious conceit of the show as much as a quiet pattern, like the showrunners are trying to MKUltra millennial women into believing that you can only fall in love if your father exists solely in postmortem flashback. But it’s true."
