The original source of that version you posted is the Berger & Wyse comic strip from The Guardian, 2 November 2013.

Found via uploading the image to tineye.com and sorting by oldest, and then using web.archive.org to navigate now-dead links it returned.

I threw your image at https://tineye.com/ and found the uncensored version.

Does it finally make one his bitch, though?

That's a trick answer, Time Lords speak everything.

Giving credit is cool.

Screenshot of the same tweet OP posted, but without the user info scribbled out as in OP's image. Tweet posted 1/31/19 by Twitter user @holyfudge which reads, "I've been alive 20 years and still haven't found the right thing to say when someone knocks on the door of the public bathroom you're in"

Quinton can doubtless do better.

That show is so un-goth. They took a cool old story that was, in all it's various formats, about a family delighting in being themselves without concern for how weird anyone else thought they were - pretty damn goth as these things go - and turned it into just another weaksauce knockoff of that magic-school series by that awful transphobe.

It's time to bring back more brand names that are entire sentences. I Can't Believe It's Not Butter has been holding it down alone for too long.

The trouble with Quantum Navigation is you might end up where you were trying to go, but at a random point in the past where you have to change history to put right something that once went wrong.

Back in 2012 Diamond Select Toys released a highly-detailed 8-inch This Island Earth Metaluna Mutant action figure that comes with his own interocitor. (Like, who doesn't have an interocitor?) I'd been keeping an eye on evilBay for one to come up at a not-so-stupid price, and eventually lucked out and snagged one.

The Mutant figure and Interocitor as sold, with the original image on the interocitor's screen.

As manufactured, the interocitor has a sticker on its screen depicting the pattern of curvy lines seen once or twice in the film. This sticker is surprisingly chintzy and easy to pull off, with a little gentle encouragement from an xacto knife under the corners.

Meanwhile, I'd grabbed some screenshots from MST3K: The Movie of our beloved Dr. Forrester in various sizes, and had them printed up cheaply at my local pharmacy/photo processor where you can upload any images you want. These are 6x4" prints with matte finish.

A few different Dr. F. shots from the film printed up as photos, with one cut into a suitable triangle to match the toy screen.

Because I was just eyeballing things, most of these ended up with Dr. F's head too big for the screen. The one that fit perfectly was from the scene in which he's zapping Mike and the bots from the interocitor in Servo's room. Here's the cropped screenshot I used.

Cropped screenshot from "MST3K: The Movie" of Dr. F. laughing maniacally on the screen of Servo's interocitor.

As it turns out I didn't even have to use any glue or tape to stick the new Dr. F. pic in place, as the adhesive left behind on the toy by the peeled-off sticker does the job perfectly by itself.

Another shot of the modded toy with Dr. F. screen, with the Mutant gesturing triumphantly at my work.

I'm the god! I'M THE GOD!

I assume it's the handiwork of Sully Sullenferter, the alternate-universe Sully Sullenberger.
