a: Pathogen ~
b: honey badger of the microbial world
What:
"My bets are on some virus-like or bacteria-like life, which to me is honestly more scary. One can see how we might negotiate with the little green men or even live in harmony. But a virus or similar pathogen is like the honey badger of the microbial world: it just doesn't give a damn as long as it can make more of itself."
