You know, they looked synthetic and there was one particular…I’d say object, or organism, I’m not sure what to call it, that had tentacles coming from it, and …. And it was able to lift itself off of the cover, I’m sorry, the glass slide.

Yeah, she's definitely on acid.
Either that or batguano crazy.

And then she says she cried and cried, harder than she ever cried before.

This chick needs to be locked up before she hurts herself or somebody else.

She's a drug-addled nutcase.

Some additional information-believers in Transhumanism exist, and to them we will be just bugs/worms:

The articles in this issue of The Journal of Medicine and Philosophy are either explicitly about transhumanism or are on topics, such as the ethics of germline engineering and criteria for personhood, that are directly relevant to the debate between transhumanists (and technoprogressives more broadly) and bioconservatives.

Transhumanism is an intellectual and socio-political movement that is concerned with a cluster of issues in bioethics, in particular, issues involving the use of technology to transform the human organism radically.

The core of transhumanism is to encourage the use of biotransformative technologies in order to “enhance” the human organism, with the ultimate aim being to modify the human organism so radically as to “overcome fundamental human limitations” (Transhumanist FAQ, 2016) and thereby the “human” as such. In other words, to use transhumanist terminology, their fundamental goal is to become “posthuman.”

According to transhumanists, a “transhuman” is a “transitional human” who aims at becoming posthuman and takes appropriate steps (e.g., technological enhancement) toward that end—whereas a “posthuman,” the ideal for and goal of transhumanists, is a being so radically different in physical, cognitive, and emotional capacities from normal or current humans as to be no longer unambiguously human.

Transhumanist rhetoric on the posthuman typically goes much further than this, however: in his “Letter from Utopia,” for example, Nick Bostrom adopts the narrative voice of a future posthuman addressing current humans, and he writes “You could say I am happy, that I feel good.

You could say that I feel surpassing bliss. But these are words invented to describe human experience. What I feel is as far beyond human feeling as my thoughts are beyond human thought. I wish I could show you what I have in mind” (Bostrom, 2010, 3–4).

Elsewhere, he suggests that the intelligence gap between posthumans and humans will be less comparable to the intelligence gap between a human genius and a human of average intelligence than it will be to that between a human and a beetle or worm (Bostrom, 2014, 112).
