Your roundup of this week’s most widely-read, shared, and discussed stories.

• Angela Garbes wrote a stunning piece on miscarriage—rarely a topic of discussion in part due to the discomfort it may evoke. She asks: What might we gain if we listened more to women about their experiences with pregnancy loss?

• Today is Independent Bookstore Day. Here’s a handy guide on how celebrate your local literary resources.

• What do you get when an exclusive group of people gathers for a “Homelessness Solutions Dinner”? Not solutions for homelessness. That didn’t stop these thinkfluencers from trying, however. The irony of them seeking solutions at a members-only clubhouse adjacent to thousands sleeping on Seattle’s streets was missed by no one.

• You must have heard by now: Last weekend, Beyonce released Lemonade, her widely anticipated, widely acclaimed visual album. Larry Mizell Jr. calls it "breathtaking." On Blabbermouth, Ijeoma Oluo describes its devastating power. Artist C. Davida Ingram calls it a kaleidoscopic view of blackness. And did you know: one of its directors is an artist currently showing work at the Frye?

• It’s game over for the city, says Charles Mudede: He predicts that Seattle is now on an irreversible course towards becoming the next San Francisco. Readers wish it weren’t so, but many concur. What do you think?

• It’s gonna be May. Here are the best events this month that you should get tickets for. Or if the only event you’re really looking forward to is Cinco de Mayo, here’s how you optimize that, too.

• Over at the Henry Art Gallery, a Seattle artist is wrestling with corporate food systems (and their hungry victims). “Corporations today produce beggars and then sponsor charity programs, lending logos and spare cash to scenes of need,” Jen Graves writes in her review.

• Wanna do something this weekend but don’t have the money? The cheapest and easiest things to have been compiled for you right here. Already know that what you want is a good movie? The best ones screening in Seattle this weekend are compiled right here.

Enjoy the sun this weekend.
