Until she discovers a problem and tries to become a whistleblower.

TLDR from the actual interview with her:
- She did lose the internship. He did try to get it back for her but it didn’t work.
- She eventually ended up working for Boeing, but on commercial jet engines rather than space stuff.
- they called her to rescind her internship while she was at her brother’s wedding

Nothing wrong with that, need to keep in touch with friends somehow.
Posting shit like this on a social media account tied to you irl is just being stupid. If I said shit like this to a higher up at a company that I just received an internship at (even somewhere with waaaay less prestige than NASA), I would not be expecting to keep that internship.

It was something like this: A: Everybody shut the fuck up I got accepted into NASA B: mind your language A: fuck you B: denys A the scholarship

Homer didn’t deny anything, he wasn’t even involved in that decision. He even put in a good word for her. However she basically lied when she was asked about it and that dug her in deeper, also leaving the post up didn’t help.
NASA basically wanted her to not draw controversy to the agency over social media, per their rules, and they normally have a reasonable amount of leeway. But there were a couple concerning things during the process, mistakes she made (that she has probably since grown from) that led to NASA passing on her internship.

Let’s not overlook the thousands of transphobes on 4chan, 8chan, and kiwi farms who reported the tweet to NASA just to try to get her fired.
LemmyKnowsBest@lemmy.world 5 weeks ago
Transphobes? Did she literally have dick and balls?
Mirodir@discuss.tchncs.de 5 weeks ago
From what I remember and what a quick search on the internet confirmed, B didn’t actually deny her anything. He actually went out of his way to do as much good for her as he could. He claims to have replied “Language.” because he knew other people at NASA with more say on her job would find her, which would get her into trouble (and they did find her even before his first Tweet).
TommySoda@lemmy.world 5 weeks ago
Did… Did they get the job? I kinda hope they did. Being overly excited can fuck you over sometimes. Like a weird yell could even fuck you over.

It was a lot of swearing. And he wrote “Language”. Then something like “who tf are you” And he answered big boss at NASA or something.

I bet you have your reasons for posting the most dogshit version of this picture available, while also linking to a site with a much clearer version.

Censoring language on a screenshot is so stupid. Who is doing this? For what purpose?
hangonasecond@lemmy.world 4 weeks ago
Reach a broader audience on dogshit platforms. At least this is proper censoring and not a piss take off a line through the “bad word”
