Was this the same furry who got a job at NASA? If I recall, the guy who actually got the "suck my dick i'm working for nasa" comment actually tried to get her the job back.

...ouch
The handle is different
But it’s the same first name and last initial. I imagine she had to get rid of the old handle after…the incident
it's bullshit that that's what got her job pulled tho.
The person she told that to, Homer Hickam, had no say in the firing, expressed disappointment after, and helped her get another job after (though I do not recall if it was successful). In an era where companies are increasingly sensitive about what employees post online, she had it much much better than just about anyone else in the world fired for the same thing at least.
And really… perhaps I’m old fashioned, but posting stuff like that in the same tweet as your NASA offer was pretty poorly thought out. NASA doesn’t feel like the type of organization that wants its employees associated with messaging like that.
While I'm usually all for that sort of consequence to happen to someone who is legitimately being gross or creepy; I don't think they should've actually fired her. Legitimately it should've been a stern warning and a request to apologize for the statement at worst.
Do I think it was a good idea to tweet it? Of course not. Was it unprofessional? Probably. I guess it depends on if the tweet or statement was made IRL or on Twitter via an alternate account.
Not really. She's a cunt with main character syndrome. I wouldn't hire her either.

main character syndrome
Pot calling the kettle black right here.
Still swearing though lol. Wasn't that what got her fired lmfao
No, I think it was mostly telling the Space Council member to suck their member.
Right some folks in here pretending they were fired for saying fuck when actually they were fired for saying “suck my dick, I work at nasa” to an important member of the space network lol
