The 2026 Academy Award nominations were announced Thursday morning.

And while many expected One Battle After Another to lead the pack after winning big at the Golden Globes, instead, Sinners has scored the most nominations with 16.

Not only is Ryan Coogler’s genre-defying vampire epic the most-nominated film of the year, but it now holds the record for most nominations of all time, beating out 1950’s All About Eve, 1997’s Titanic, and 2016’s La La Land, which each had 14 noms.

In second place comes OBAA with 13 nods.

Many prognosticators believe that Paul Thomas Anderson’s film about the toll of political activism is still the most likely Best Picture winner.

One Battle took home top prizes at most of the critics’ award shows, and the shooting death of Renee Good and subsequent ICE protests in Minneapolis have lent a topical quality to the film that might resonate with voters.

Other films that stand to win big on Oscar night include Marty Supreme, Hamnet, and Frankenstein, which are all represented in multiple major categories.

It’s been over three years since Bryan Kohberger savagely murdered four college students in their off-campus home in Idaho.

The murderer pled guilty instead of facing trial, so there’s still a great deal that we don’t know about that fateful night in 2022.

Now, new crime scene photos have been released by the Idaho State Police, and in addition to providing new information, they’ve created a surprising controversy.

The photos, which can be viewed in the video below, depict a gory, blood-spattered scene in which multiple life-or-death struggles took place.

We see blood spilled on walls, beds, and floors. And in one of the most chilling images, a bloody handprint can be seen on a nightstand.

Needless to say, these photos are deeply disturbing.

And one of the victim’s families is criticizing police not only for releasing the photos but for failing to properly warn those who are most closely connected to these horrifying crimes.

“We got a call at 11:04am that photos would be released this afternoon,” relatives of Kaylee Goncalves wrote in a Facebook post.

“By the time the call ended (12 minutes later) the photos had already been released (likely they had been available before the call we just didn’t know it yet). That’s the ‘heads up’ we received.”

The Goncalves family went on to honor Kaylee’s memory while lashing out at those who have exploited her in death:

“Kaylee Jade, I am so sorry that this has happened to you. I am so sorry that people who never even knew you, now post about you, suggesting things about your life that are so untrue. We will never quit fighting for you,” they wrote.

“The best thing about all of this is that you are in Heaven and you have no idea of the hate and ugliness. I love you, Kaylee Jade.”

Kohberger murdered four University of Idaho students: Madison Mogen, Kaylee Goncalves, Xana Kernodle, and Ethan Chapin, all of them in their early twenties.

One roommate, Dylan Mortensen, survived and is credited with helping investigators apprehend Kohberger.

She told police that on the night of the murders, she was awakened by a “commotion” and saw a masked man in the hallway of her home.

“And that’s when I saw this guy,” she said.

“He was not insanely tall, but he was wearing all black and this mask that was covering his forehead and his mouth. And then I locked the door. I didn’t know what to do.”

Neither Mortensen nor the families of the other victims have publicly responded to the release of the photos.

Yes, she regrets creating broken homes with four baby daddies for her seven kids.

But no, Kailyn Lowry insists, she isn’t just repeating her mom’s pattern of putting men first.

Looking at her history of personal choices, that sounds pretty difficult to dispute.

But Kail’s still going to try.

‘Some people will argue that I’m the same as my mom’

As we previously reported, Kailyn acknowledged that moving her new boyfriend, Ike, into her home so soon after ending her engagement to Elijah was unusual.

In fact, she admitted that it was “selfish” of her. Not only for the speed with which she moved him in, but for breaking one of her dating rules: he has a kid (just as she has seven of her own).

However, she followed up the chat with Part 2 on her Patreon — refuting all of the people observing that she’s repeating her mother’s toxic behavior.

“Some people will argue that I’m the same as my mom but with money,” Kail acknowledged. “I’ve heard that several times.”

She disagreed, commenting: “I’m thinking back to my childhood and the men my mom had me around.”

According to Kailyn, the men who were with Suzi for a long time (or married her) weren’t the ones who “hurt her.”

She explained: “It was the men in between that she also had me around that were the dangerous ones.”

Waxing introspective, Kail commented: “So, I think in some ways that’s my justification [for having a lot of long-term relationships].”

(We have to note that not all long-term relationships are non-violent, as she herself has experienced)

But Kailyn insisted that she is not like Suzi. That she does not put her boyfriends before any of her seven children.

‘If I’m not happy as a woman first, I cannot be a good mom’

“The assumption is I don’t think about my kids,” Kailyn characterized her critics’ arguments.

“Contrary to that,” she argued, “I would say I did think about what kind of person he is before I brought him into the rest of my kids’ lives.”

Kail pointed out: “I didn’t just meet [him]. It’s not like I met him on Tinder.”

She clarified: “I’m not saying there are unsafe people on Tinder, but I didn’t just meet him for the first time and introduce him to my kids.”

Kailyn detailed: “I’ve known him since pretty much high school, not in-depth obviously.” She then claimed that friends performed a background check on him before she moved him into her house.

“I don’t think I expected to have a full-blown relationship but I think after the first time we hung out I think both of us just knew what it was,” Kail reflected.

“We’ve been in toxic environments in the past,” she noted, “and acknowledged where we’ve been toxic in the past and acknowledged we both want the same things moving forward.”

Kailyn then understated: “We don’t waste time. We’re ready to be committed and faithful to somebody and I felt we were both on the same page with that.”

She claimed: “You cannot deny chemistry and attraction when it’s there.”

Kail then explained why her seven children benefit from her controversial choices: “If I’m not happy as a woman first, I cannot be a good mom.” (Oh, girl)

‘They have all made me miserable’

“And I’m not saying I’m relying on men for happiness,” Kailyn claimed.

“Because if we are being honest and you look at my track record,” she acknowledged, “they have all made me miserable.”

But Ike, we’re sure, will continue to be different … until he isn’t.

Kail has wisely been no-contact with Suzi for over a decade. (Good for her!)

If she were to ask her today, would Suzi say that she put men men first over her daughter?

On some level, Kailyn seems to be interweaving both parents’ bad habits into her own life, but just differently enough that it feels meaningfully different (to her).
