      I did some low-effort Googling and now I’m seeing that maybe some sea critters like krill have the highest non-bacteria biomass.

      Either way, none of these are beetles!

        The world truly belongs to bacteria, and we’re just along for the ride.

      I’m considering the hovertext and I consider the pounds of bacteria in me to be Me. How are we dividing this out?

        You’ll have to have a referendum, consulting each bacterium and asking if they identify as part of the collective known as “you” or as an independent organism

        Do the bacteria in you consider you to be one of them (so to speak), or are you just a cruise ship?
