We're using the US style date format of MONTH, Day, YEAR, which is upsetting to me.

We could go Chinese, cos they're objectively correct, or we could go British, cos that's what one might expect in Britain. Make Dates Great Again.

What's the best format? Can you give an example?

Render dates on /posts more typically for the UK

@JoeMitchell says that "March, 2 2017" is more of an US style of date
(I guess because the way you'd say that out loud matches with MM/DD?).
This commit changes the date rendering on that page to, say,
"2nd March 2017".
