While it appears that Homer Hickam is threatening to railroad Naomi’s internship (in 2018), he later clarified that he has no say on internships and that he took no offense to her tweets whatsoever. He was providing a friendly warning that he knows the people in charge of internships and that they’d likely take offense to her tweets.
Naomi ultimately lost her internship, apparently due to her friends attacking Homer on Twitter and including NASA as a hashtag, drawing the attention of NASA. Hickam and Naomi supposedly had a decent conversation afterwards where friendly apologies were exchanged. Homer stated that he also spoke to the people in charge of her internship to ensure that the interaction ultimately wouldn’t leave a black mark on her record.
Whether Naomi ever ended up working for NASA appears unknown.

Snopes has a pretty decent article covering the full story.
And that’s why every conversation being public, recorded forever, and shared with all humanity is a problem.
I disagree. Everything ever should be public and monetized by private companies slurping up your existence.
Now everyone come watch me poop!
Oh . . . can’t. Got a . . thing.
Too late, anyway. Already bidet blasting that booty, baby!

First thought… I need an explanation… one moment later… Fuck it, that’s the whole point
Risky click of the day, but web comic was worth it.
