My body is an autonomous collective. Supreme executive power derives from a mandate from the masses, not from some farcical biological ceremony.

Bloody peasant!
We're only pretending to be in control. It's like being the spokesperson for an organisation trying to explain what all the different departments came up with. But on the other hand, if the spokesperson makes s compelling argument, the rest might fall in line.
All governments are fundamentally homeostatic but prone to sudden decompensation due to the various feedback loops they contain going wild after a certain threshold is reached. A sufficient external insult can overcome this homeostasis of course, just like underlying cancer, dysfunctional regulatory system, or an auto-immune disorder can. But it will still attempt to compensate until the system breaks down.
Rule by fear. You do have the power to kill them all, make some threats.
We meet again, MTK, for the first time, for the last time...
That’s why drinking cures my depression. I kill a few brain cells to keep the rest in line.
My cells know better than to start any shit. They saw what I did to the appendix when he started acting up.
I drown mine with alcohol when they start acting up. Oh you think you can kill me? Well watch me take you fuckers with me!
I'll drink to that
Honestly if you actually accept and embrace this and start treating your body better because you realize it’s actually in charge and taking care of it takes care of you life gets a lot better
I thought I was an autonomous collective.
I'm being held hostage by the cells' survival instinct.
Autoimmune diseases: 'off with her head!'

I Will Fear No Evil by Robert Heinlein.
An old man's brain is transplanted into a young woman's body. When he wakes up he discovers that she's still in there...
My body is revolting!
Gonna write itself a Magna Carta!
