It's 2am and I'm tossing and turning in bed, nursing another heartbreak. This time from a man whose idea of romance began and ended with a three-word text: 'Hey, you up?'
After a disastrous few months of on-and-off dating with this guy – who couldn't even commit to dinner plans – I was done.

Seniors forced to ride wheelchairs on busy streets in Oakland

A trio of terrified disabled seniors say the sidewalks in their Oakland neighborhood are so squalid that they're being forced to dice with death and ride their wheelchairs on the main road. Cathy Harris, Shaaron Green-Peace and Rose Luster-Brooks all use motorized wheelchairs and live at a senior living facility off International Boulevard at 105th Avenue. They all told KTVU that the sheer amount of garbage is making it impossible for them to get around safely in their own community. 'We have to ride in the street as if we're cars. It's unsafe,' Luster-Brooks said. And they claim it's not all down to the homeless people in the area. They say that since the trash heap has grown so much, even regular passers by have been casually contributing to it. 'People are dumping, I mean everything in the world you can find right here on this corner,' Luster-Brooks said. The women have said that the garbage has even stopped them from being able to use a bus with East Bay Paratransit, a transportation method funded by the city that specifically serves disabled residents. 'They no longer can pick us up there. A couple of them have tried and we're like, "how are you going to let us out in this trash?"' Luster-Brooks said. The bus driver now picks them up at the next corner of the intersection, which the women said is riddled with oncoming traffic and isn't as safe. City spokesperson Sean Maher confirmed to KTVU that the location has received repeated requests from constituents for clean-ups and that Oakland's Encampment Management Team is aware of the site. Houston, who represents deep East Oakland in the city council, said the encampment has been removed twice but keeps returning. 'It's on the radar and we're going to come out, and these seniors should be protected,' Houston said in front of the pile of trash. One thing that could be hamstringing cleanup crews is that they're generally not allowed to remove people's personal property from encampments under city policy, Maher said. According to a regulation passed in 2020 by the city council, employees tasked with 'deep cleaning' encampments must 'make reasonable efforts to mitigate any individual or group property loss.' They're allowed to clean up 'debris, trash, waste, illegal dumping, hazmat' and other items, but any personal property they come across that doesn't appear abandoned needs to be stored. 'The City will make reasonable efforts to store up to one (1) square yard of such property per individual,' the regulation states. Oakland had the eighth largest homeless population of all major cities in the US last year, according to the Department of Housing and Urban Development. The number of homeless people in Oakland has jumped nearly 18 percent since 2019, before the COVID-19 pandemic exacerbated the problem in most US cities.

Disney World guests rushed to hospital after boat crash

A horrific ferry boat crash at Disney World has reportedly resulted in multiple guests having to be rushed to the hospital. According to a witness, the boat was bringing families from the Magic Kingdom to the Transportation and Ticket Center on Wednesday night during a massive storm, when it suddenly 'hit something.' The Disney guest, named Larry, described the horrific scene in detail to the Daily Mail, claiming that people were 'thrown forward' as 'metal trash cans' came barreling forward onto 'little kids,' resulting in one boy getting pinned under a trash can. He recounted terrified children screaming and 'people bleeding' as they waited for EMT services to arrive. Speaking exclusively to the Daily Mail, Larry explained, 'I was leaving Magic Kingdom on Wednesday, July 30, right when they closed at 11pm.' He said that as they were waiting for the ferry it started raining 'heavily,' adding, 'It was coming down hard so we were surprised the ferry was running in the dark and pouring rain.' As they were approaching the Transportation and Ticket Center he said the boat 'hit something all of a sudden.' 'When we hit whatever we hit, everyone was thrown forward and the metal trash cans and recycling bins were thrown forward onto strollers and little kids,' he explained. 'There were little kids screaming and [I] noticed that a boy was pinned under the trash cans so [everyone] quickly lifted them up.' Footage shared exclusively with the Daily Mail by Larry of the aftermath shows hoards of terrified families huddling on the boat moments after the crash. Some are seen on the ground with screaming and crying heard in the background. He said that after the boat pulled into the dock and guests rushed off to safety 'not a word was said from the captains or Disney cast members.' 'There were furious screaming parents and all these employees were doing was saying, "You'll have to take it up with guest services when they open," or, "Call guest services,"' Larry told the Daily Mail. 'Lots of kids were shaken up and holding their parents while crying. There were people bleeding and parents sitting on the floor holding their children waiting for EMTs. It was a very chaotic site.' Tami Hackett, from Houston, Texas, was also on the ferry when it crashed, along with her daughter, her daughter's husband, and their twin three-year-old daughters. 'Suddenly we crashed into something and we all went flying forward falling,' she told the Daily Mail. 'The stroller landed on its back causing the girls to hit their heads. A lot of people screaming and really hurt bad.' She added that upon getting off the boat 'there no announcement on what to do if injured.' 'We were concerned the girls had concussions so waited on the dock for direction, none came,' she continued. 'When EMT finally got there I watched as they were just as confused with no direction from staff.' She said when they finally 'flagged down an EMT' he checked the girls and said they were OK. 'He expressed his disbelief on how the park handled the entire situation and the chaos,' she added. Several other people who claimed to be on the water vessel when the horrific incident occurred took to Reddit to share their account of what happened. They told similar stories of being 'thrown all around' and 'getting crushed by a surge of people.' 'The ferry boat from Magic Kingdom to TTC crashed while I was on it,' read the title of the Reddit post. 'Very scary scene. Happened about 11.40pm during a heavy storm,' the user wrote. 'Boat was approaching the TTC dock when the boat came to a sudden and complete stop, throwing every passenger forward.' 'I was on that ferry! It was insane. People thrown forward all around. No warning, just a loud crash and sudden stop approaching the dock,' someone else shared in the comment section. 'I think they hit the cement jetty.' 'It was scary. We were right down the front and could see it heading toward the dock and it wasn't getting any slower,' recounted another person. 'Luckily we were able to brace for impact but then got crushed by a surge of people from behind... Girl by us was quite badly injured.' 'Multiple people taken off on stretchers, many others witnessed lying on the ground waiting for medical evaluation. Dozens of people injured,' read a third comment. 'We were on it and four or five of us were injured,' shared a different person. 'It was complete chaos and the staff had no clue how to handle it. Very disappointed with Disney and how they handled this.' 'I was on that ferry with my daughter and mother on the lower deck. We fell hard and slid,' revealed someone else. 'I was Ubering [at] Disney last night, as I usually do. I had to continuously pull over for police, ambulances and fire trucks, I kept thinking, "Where's the accident?"' shared a different user. 'I finally got to TTC, picked up my passengers. They were shaking, the mom had blood dripping down her face, eye, and all over her hands. 'Her little boy was also bleeding. I finally convinced them to let me take them to the hospital. 'She was in shock and refused to let EMTs check them out before leaving. Hopefully everyone has a quick recovery.' Theme park news site WDW News Today reported that there was a 'mutual aid call at 12.02am corresponding to the address for the TTC ferryboat landing.' "Mutual Aid" in this case refers to reciprocal assistance from multiple agencies across jurisdictional boundaries, particularly when the emergency is too big for one agency to handle,' the website added. The outlet said 19 people were transported to local hospitals, 'with at least eight people having major injuries.' The Daily Mail has reached out to Disney World for comment, but did not hear back.

Flight attendant claims Delta crash caused by underqualified pilot

A flight attendant on board a Delta plane that crash-landed in Canada and flipped upside down claims an inexperienced pilot is to blame for the incident in a bombshell new lawsuit. Vanessa Miles, 67, who worked for Delta's regional subsidiary Endeavor Air as a flight attendant, was traveling as a passenger on the regional aircraft to her next assignment when it crashed on February 17. Endeavor Flight 4819 a crash-landed in Toronto from Minneapolis and burst into flames after flipping over and skidding on the tarmac. Dozens were hospitalized but miraculously all 76 passengers and four crew members survived the horrific crash. Now a lawsuit filed against both Delta Air Lines and Endeavor in federal court in Michigan on Monday claims the fiery crash was caused by, 'an inexperienced and inadequately trained pilot'. Miles is seeking $75 million in damages for the injuries she allegedly suffered from the crash while 'deadheading,' meaning she was traveling as a passenger and not allowed to perform any work duties. The flight attendant was left unconscious and dangling upside down by her seatbelt following the crash, the filing states. Miles accused the airlines of a 'reckless disregard for passenger safety', in the lawsuit, asserting that the, 'accident was caused, at least in part, by [the airlines] knowingly assigning an inexperienced and inadequately trained pilot to operate the flight'. The airlines, 'cut corners on safety by rushing pilots through training programs and knowingly putting passengers at risk with inexperienced flight crew', the lawsuit states. Delta declined to comment on the pending litigation, but directed the Daily Mail to their previous statements on the Endeavor Air 4819 flight crew, insisting they are qualified and adequately trained . The unidentified captain of the plane had worked for Endeavor Air, a subsidiary of Delta, for 18 years. He has flown a total of 3,570 hours across his career and is also a training instructor. On the day of the crash, he was coming onto his first shift of the week. It was also the first flight of the day. His co-pilot, who has also not been identified, had worked with Endeavor for just over a year and had flown an estimated 1,422 hours across the span of her career. The co-pilot was on her final shift of the week. Both the captain and first officer are 'qualified and FAA certified for their positions'. Miles claimed she suffered a fractured left shoulder/scapula, traumatic brain injury with loss of consciousness, post-concussion syndrome with headaches, dizziness, and other cognitive difficulties, bilateral knee injuries, back injuries, exposure to jet fuel and toxic fumes, and psychological trauma including anxiety, depression and post-traumatic stress disorder. The court document claims to provide detail on her terrifying experience during the crash. '[Miles] was rendered temporarily unconscious while hanging upside down from her seatbelt in the inverted aircraft,' the filing said. 'Upon regaining consciousness, she found herself soaked in jet fuel and surrounded by smoke, putting her at grave risk for chemical burns, asphyxiation, and death.' Miles fell approximately six to seven feet to the ground during the evacuation because the emergency slides had not deployed, further aggravating her injuries, the complaint states. She said the plane exploded two minutes after she exited the aircraft, but claims she was forced to stand outside in the frigid weather for one hour before she was taken to the hospital, per the filing. The Daily Mail contacted Miles' attorneys for comment. In March, the Transportation Safety Board of Canada released a preliminary report detailing the current 'focus areas' of the investigation, but the information that has been garnered so far. Landing techniques offered in pilot training, as well as training for flight attendants are being probed, along with the landing gear and wing structure. Authorities are also examining cabin obstructions and impediments once inverted, as well as 'coordination in emergencies' and 'organizational and management factors.'
