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.
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).
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
Who the fuck tweets at people telling them not to swear?

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.
I swear I remember she didn’t
No, she didn’t. However she did end up in aerospace anyway.
There was a 16th Minute of Fame podcast episode about it, including a recent interview:

Why are podcasts so fucking long?
I want to hear this story but I’m not interested enough to invest over an hour. I’d listen if it was 10 minutes.
Yep. And I’m not even remotely interested in the chitchat. Podcasts dont really work for me because theyre 90% off topic. lol
