Why can't I post a new topic on the Small Talk category?

The title is my query …

Not sure, but it’s nothing personal as I can’t either :grin:

I can’t even find the Small Talk category :thinking:

But not even I can create topics there, nor can I see why, odd - @james?

Perhaps your talk wasn’t small enough?

No, I can manage really small talk when needed

What I wanted to post was this:

NASA’s Parker Solar Probe completed its 19th close approach to the Sun on March 30, matching its own distance record by coming about 4.51 million miles (7.26 million kilometers) of the solar surface.

The close approach (known as perihelion) occurred at 2:21 UTC - or 10:21 EDT, March 29 - with Parker Solar Probe moving 394,736 miles per hour (635,266 kilometers per hour) around the Sun, again equaling its own record.

so, only 6300 years to reach alpha centauri !

Longer, if you go on Brittany Ferries…

I think the view was that small talk happened in General Discussion anyway so a separate category isn’t needed. Interesting Any Cheerful News Today is in Small talk, so some threads are still open but we can’t create new ones.
