Weird that a policy article has a thumbnail of random steak....it's not even mentioned in the article.

Lol, okay. I thought maybe my instance screwed up the thumbnail generation or something. Glad I'm not the only one confused.

Not the first time these guys love their eccentric thumbnails

Was "Iconic Denver Steaks from Denver, CO" really the best image they could think to use for an article about affordable housing?

Tbf, that's a nice looking steak

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 months ago (1 children)

It's a underrated cut of steak

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Hell, I'd take a train from my house to the grocery store to buy that steak.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 months ago

I’m really liking this train of thought.

I for one agree that higher density housing should have access to the best cuts of meat available.
