I generally don't watch Tv but my kids insisted I watch a show called "ALONE"

It looks like this lady had all those "survival gurus" beat

The cops won’t release her name, etc. because of suspected mental health issues. Did she do something wrong? Commit a crime?

She wants to live out in the woods and eat grass, leave her alone.

“...Survived on moss and grass..”
So, she ate the moss and smoked the grass?
Still impressive!

She voted for Biden and felt so ashamed of herself.

I doubt it, moss and grass cannot be digested by humans without a few extra organs.

At least she didn’t eat the fungi. Or perhaps, that’s what started this.

It fills the belly when you cannot find a newt.

I’ve been working on a new reality TV show, a spin-off of “My 600 Lb life.”

Severely obese people are sent to places like India or Kenya, two work on farms and live with the locals. They are required to stay 1 year.

I dunno. My guess is that she probably doesn’t bathe much these days... X.x

When she was ‘found’ did she look well fed or was she skinny ???

Did she visit the local MickeyD’s frequently or did she really only eat the moss and grass ???

No newts in Utah. And some are deadly poisonous, so, no newts is good newts.
