Thor's day
Painting depicting the Norse god Thunor (the Norse Thor), after whom Thursday is named, by Mårten Eskil Winge, 1872 The name is derived from Old English þunresdæg and Middle English Thuresday (with loss of -n-, first in northern dialects, from influence of Old Norse Þórsdagr) meaning "Thor's Day". It was named after the Norse god Thor.[2][3][4] Thunor, Donar (German, Donnerstag) and Thor are derived from the name of the Germanic god of thunder, Thunraz, equivalent to Jupiter in the interpretatio romana.
In most Romance languages, the day is named after the Roman god Jupiter, who was the god of sky and thunder. In Latin, the day was known as Iovis Dies, "Jupiter's Day". In Latin, the genitive or possessive case of Jupiter was Iovis/Jovis and thus in most Romance languages it became the word for Thursday: Italian giovedì, Spanish jueves, French jeudi, Sardinian jòvia, Catalan dijous, Galician xoves and Romanian joi. This is also reflected in the p-Celtic Welsh dydd Iau.
The astrological and astronomical sign of the planet Jupiter (♃ Jupiter) is sometimes used to represent Thursday.
Since the Roman god Jupiter was identified with Thunor (Norse Thor in northern Europe), most Germanic languages name the day after this god: Torsdag in Danish, Norwegian, and Swedish, Hósdagur/Tórsdagur in Faroese, Donnerstag in German or Donderdag in Dutch. Finnish and Northern Sami, both non-Germanic (Uralic) languages, uses the borrowing "Torstai" and "Duorastat". In the extinct Polabian Slavic language, it was perundan, Perun being the Slavic equivalent of Thor.[5]
RE: 100 a day until 100k (This post got me start on this quest)
Today is a day to knock out 100 push-ups. Break them down as you wish. Use the #100aDayTill100k hashtag on NOSTR or whatever shit-posting media you prefer.
I have already started with 25:100 and I have 3 more sets of 25+25+25. This morning my first 25 was slow and at 20 I was really digging deep. Wish me luck!
I wish you all a great day! Try this challenge and get your body and mind into shape! Remember, no matter what you do, you still are doing. Even if you do nothing. This human life is a gift. Your body is a temple. Show that you are grateful for this temple by lifting it up after prostrating in the front leaning rest position!

You will notice that the above "god's" share a similar root as to "shine" this is where we get the words:
Deva, Theo, Dios
as in Theology.

It's basically astrotheology that has taught man about the universe and man in turn has learned to reflect upon the fact that what is above is also below. What is outside is also inside.
