Following on from @TTT (sorry, I don't have enough reputation to add a comment to your post)

If every day is Thursday because you are on Jupiter, perhaps some days you can see Saturn and therefore it's "Saturday" which is named after Saturn.

Alternatively,

If you were on one of Jupiter's moons, most days are Thursday because you're facing Jupiter but occasionally you face out to Saturn? Thursday/Saturday depends on what planet you see at the time?

You are

on Jupiter.

Because

Thursday is named after the Roman god Jupiter. And so, obviously, every day is Thursday on Jupiter.

That being said,

Unfortunately this doesn't explain why Thursday is sometimes Saturday...
