Show post date on the page

the_date() is technically the template tag to do it. However it has a somewhat unusual aspect to only output once per date, so if there are multiple posts on page from same date they won’t all show it.

get_the_date() is one level lower and retrieves (not outputs) a post’s date without that bit of logic.
