Yes but if I remember correctly, each of those Norse gods are correlated with the Roman gods who share names with planets, which is how you can draw a connection between the planets and weekdays for English. The same connection exists in many languages across the world including Spanish, French, Hindi, Japanese.
The gods that the weekdays are named after also have associated planets, so really every day is named after a celestial body already.
Ex: Saturday is obviously Saturn Day, Thursday is Thor’s Day, with Thor being the equivalent of the Roman Jupiter, so Thursday is indirectly Jupiter Day, etc.
The days of the week come from the Sun (Sunday), Moon (Monday), and classic 5 planets (Tuesday = Mars, Wednesday = Mercury, Thursday = Jupiter, Friday = Venus, Saturday = Saturn). This makes more sense in some other languages, for example Spanish: marte / martes, mercurio / miercoles. Saturn = Saturday though is almost obvious.
So if there were another day in the week, I have no choice but to either:
This gives us precedent to create up to 10 days per week by including all 8 planets plus sun & moon.
Yeah it’s definitely more reasonable than maybe it seems.
As kids we had pretty similarly sized feet. And I don’t think I noticed if the socks I was wearing were too big or too small anyway, even now I have some socks that are bigger or smaller than others.
And my parents had their own socks, so the sock basket was just for me and the sibs.
Sharing socks. My family used to have a sock basket next to our shoes. You didn’t own your own socks, you just grab a pair when you need them.
I mentioned “the sock basket” offhand to a friend in elementary school and she thought it was crazy. That’s when I learned that not every family has a community sock basket. Looking it up though, I find a couple reddit threads from people with the same experience (and people replying that it’s weird) 🤷♀️
God Loves Uganda - about the impact of American Christian missionaries from megachurches on the people and politics of Uganda. It’s from 2013 and is in desperate need of an update, but it’s still very good.
The Punk Singer - documentary about the life and music of Kathleen Hanna, pioneer of “riot grrrl” punk feminism. I love the music and vibes, and Kathleen Hanna is also just a really interesting [real-life] character.

Separate, but they still had equivalents / parallels. Tuesday is named after the god of war, Thursday is named after the sky/thunder god.
