Dear J. D. Vance,
I am our shared ancestors’ favorite many times great-grandchild. Sorry, not sorry, I don’t make the rules.
Maybe it wouldn’t be this way if you weren’t weirdly dismissive of Appalachia.
Not sincerely,
Ellie (your fourth cousin)
#open letter#this is a shit post#but I’m actually not joking about the 4th cousin part#everyone from the deep mountains of eastern Kentucky is related somehow#of course he has to be through the line of one of my favorite ancestors#so that one is ESPECIALLY MINE#you don’t get to claim Sally unless you’ve been moved by her life story sitting in an archive and gotten weirdly emotional leaving flowers#I was genuinely tear eyed at her grave when I went#won’t provide more info sorry#don’t want to dox myself#needless to say#I hope I’m Sally’s favorite at least because I feel a connection to her
