Change it to real post time

Really want to make it say the real time. Why is it saying 45 years?

Did you get it working? In the stream.html template I updated from:

data-time="{{ post.timestamp }}"

to:

data-time="{{ post.timestamp.timestamp() }}"

The problem is the disTime.js (that converts it to 'X time ago') expects UNIX timestamps (eg: '1432836038') instead of the actual value stored in the DB (eg: '2015-05-28 18:00:38.546025')
