  Today’s date is the 25th, but, my blog states it is the 26th. How can I fix this?

  Hi there!

  Have a look at the time zone that you’ve set up for your site. You can modify it in My Site>Manage>Settings. Remember to click on Save Settings when you’re done :)

  Are you still looking at older posts? Changing the timezone will only affect new future posts.

  For existing posts, if you’d like, you’d have to backdate them: https://en.support.wordpress.com/schedule-a-post-or-page/#backdating
