So I'm making a post on black and biracial actors in Doctor Who, The Russell T Davies Era ;)
Let's go! (This is long)
Tumblr media
Firstly we have Noel Clarke as Mickey Smith the boyfriend to main companion Rose Tyler. He does most of the heavy lifting for black representation in Series 1 and 2 if there are no other prominent black characters within the episode. He is in Rose, Aliens of London, World War Three, Boom Town and The Parting of Ways in Series 1, The Christmas Invasion, New Earth, School Reunion, The Girl In The Fireplace, Rise of the Cybermen, The Age of Steel, Army of Ghosts and Doomsday for Series 2. He returns in Series 4 in The Stolen Earth, Journey's End and The End of Time Part 2.
Tumblr media
Next up, we have Yasmin Bannerman as Jabe, the Tree Lady from The End of the World. She was very cool, sultry and mysterious. I loved her interaction with Christopher Eccleston, especially how she handles her knowledge of who the Doctor is and the significance.
Tumblr media
Then in Aliens of London and World War Three we have the first appearance of Lachele Carl as an unamed newsreader, later revealed to be in Trinity Wells. Apart from David Tennant as The Doctor, she is the only character to appear in all four series.
Tumblr media
Following her, we have Christine Adams as Cathica in The Long Game, who I always remembered because she is so damn pretty and had sickening cornrows.
Tumblr media
Then we have Patterson Joseph as Rodrick in Bad Wolf and The Parting of Ways and Abie Eniola as Crosbie in Bad Wolf. Crosbie isn't in it for very long but is a pretty convincing ordinary Big Brother housemate, and Rodrick was pretty much the epitome of every man for himself.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Onto Season 2 we have Chu Omambala as Major Blake and a other appearance from Lachele Carl.
Tumblr media
Next we get Anjoa Andoh as Sister Jatt. We don't get her as a visible black character though, as she is a Cat Nun in this episode.
Tumblr media
Then in School Reunion we have Eugene Washington as Krillitane under the guise of teacher Mr Wagner and he is sufficiently menacing.
Tumblr media
That's all for Part 1, make sure to tune into Part 2!

hey did you ever post explanations for the ihnmaims iceberg? im so curious about some entries haha
(Oh beans! I kept forgetting about posting them! Might as well do it here.)
These are explanations for each tier of the no mouth iceberg!
SKY:
I have no mouth and I must scream- The book itself doesn’t really get talked about in the mainstream all that much.
Harlan Ellison- The author, his books have a niche cult following nowadays.
THE TIP OF THE ICEBERG:
AMs hate speech- An iconic part of the franchise, that even people who know nothing about I have no mouth and I must scream may recognise.
Ihnmaims game adaptation- On the 31st of October 1995, a point and click game adaptation of I have no mouth and I must scream was released, developed by cyberdreams and the dreamers guild, the game follows the same set up as the original but presumably proceeds the events of the book in which no one died.
Great soft jelly thing- Referring to not only the disturbing ending of the original book but also the bad ending of the game which includes the first visual depiction of what the great soft jelly thing looks like.
Russian and Chinese master computers- AMs “brethren” who were created around the same time he was, they’re only mentioned in the book but gain a pivotal role in the game, assisting the humans in AMs destruction.
Game remaster- On August 10th, a Twitter account uploaded what appeared to be a teaser for a possible remaster for the game, these were confirmed to be legitimate and were sold as a limited time offer, they also included a few extra items along with the game such as a face covering, a great soft jelly thing model and pin and hate pillar USB drive.
UNDER THE WATER:
Moonwalking- A common glitch within the no mouth game in which character sprites won’t turn in direction and will instead walk backwards.
Three armed benny- in the ending of Bennys psychodrama, he will sprout a third arm, this was thought to be a glitch but is actually intentional.
The official I have no mouth and I must scream audio book- Wonderfully voiced by Harlan Ellison, split up into five sections with loud technical noises, it can be easily found on YouTube.
psychodramas- In the ihnmaims game, each human is sent into their own personalised “psychodrama”, it is unclear whether these worlds they are sent to are real or just fabrications.
Pocket Edna- referring to how gorrister can fit a whole human inside his inventory.
Gorristers double storage spaces- In Gorristers psychodrama, he has two rows of inventory spaces while the other four humans only have one.
Spiritual beromiter- A gimmick used to measure the ethical choices you’ve made throughout each characters playthrough, if you’ve completed a perfect run, the spiritual beromiter will be completely white.
Good ending- By maxing the spiritual beromiter of each character and following specific steps throughout the ending, it’s possible to shut AM down and awake 200 humans in space who escaped before AM nuked the earth who are in cryogenic sleep.
Ihnmaims radio drama- A brilliant reenactment dramatized by Mike Walker and aired on Radio 4 on Thursday at 11 PM a good few years ago.
It follows the same plot as the book with a few extra scenes added, it’s considered the third version of ihnmaims along with the book and the game, while not as well known as the other two it’s held in high regards for its wonderful voice acting provided by Harlan Ellison as AM, David Soul as Ted, Abi Eniola as Ellen, Ewan Bailey as Nimdok, David Timson as Gorrister and Jason O’Mar as Benny, with music by Wilfredo Acosta and directed by Ned Chaillet.
Much like the official audio book it can be found on YouTube.
AM and Teds scene in the radio drama- Ted and AM are given a long scene together in which AM taunts and rants to Ted, Presumably while he strangles him.
Allied master computer, adaptive manipulator, aggressive menace- Used by Gorrister in the radio drama to describe AM, while AM is referred to as allied mastercomputer lots throughout the series, he has never been called adaptive manipulator or aggressive menace anywhere else.
THE BASE OF THE ICEBERG:
I have no mouth and I’m obscene- A two part YouTube poop created with Harlan Ellison’s official audio book reading.
Nimdoks removal- In the German version of the game, nimdok was removed due to his relations to natzis, this makes the game impossible to get a good ending on in Germany.
iOS/android app- A port of the ihnmaims game is available on the iOS App Store for about £2.99.
The milk of human kindness- Taken from Macbeth and briefly introduced in the game adaptation, it’s a substance nimdok developed during his time as a scientist, it’s what AM used to keep the five humans basically immortal.
Transform liquid- Another substance Nimdok developed, it’s said to be what was used to turn benny into a half human half ape creature.
Ihnmaims creation- As quoted by harlan Ellison, he showed about a dozen pages of ihnmaims to Frederik Pohl who paid in advance to finish it. Then, Ellison spent an entire night finishing the book with “white steamy passion” and published it without making ANY changes from the original draft that was shown to Frederik Pohl.
Harlan’s original plan for the game adaptation- Harlan originally wanted the game to be unwinable but begrudgingly agreed to add a good ending to the game when he was told that’s not how video games work.
I have no butt I must pound by Chuck tingle- a story created by famous smut writer chuckle tingle, that used elements of ihnmaims in its sci-fi erotic story.
AI fandom multiverse- An alternative universe created by fans of fictional AI’s where the universes are connected, AM is often included in these.
LOWER END OF THE ICEBERG:
Ihnmaims comic- In the 1990’s a comic was created for ihnmaims by John Byrne, it follows the same plot as the original book.
AM singing- In Gorristers psychodrama, when using the jukebox, select the last option and you will get a sort clip of AM humming and singing, careful because this also lowers the spiritual beromiter.
Game booklet- When the ihnmaims game got a physical release, it came with a manual and game booklet that revealed far more information about the charecters and world, It can still be found online.
AM fuckers- A group of people in the no mouth fandom who are sexually attracted to AM, nuff’ said.
Benny the baby eater- In Benny’s psychodrama, he was originally able to eat a living baby, this was removed before release but footage of it still remains.
Deleted/unused scenes- Benny eating a baby, a short scene involving the caged dog in Gorristers psychodrama and some dead bodies being removed from the meat cellar, also in Gorristers psychodrama.
AMs logo replacing a facist symbol in nimdoks psychodrama- during nimdoks psychodrama, AMs logo is plastered across the concentration camp, this is obviously a replacement for the natzi symbol.
Reference to the original story in the game- In Teds psychodrama, he briefly mentions the plot of the book, lending credence to the theory that the events of the book have taken place in the game but Ted wasn’t able to kill the other four humans.
Fanon AM forms- Alternative fan-created versions of AM such as AMos, PM and FM.
Worm AM- A common theme amounsgt AM designs is for him to be depicted as a worm/snake-like robot.
THE END OF THE ICEBERG:
Likely unlicensed merchandise- it is possible to buy shirts with ihnmaims imagery and quotes on them on places like redbubble.
Uncommon/unused audio- AM humming, and some harder to trigger voice lines in the game such as:
Horny AM- In both the game, book and radio drama, it’s clear AM is so enraged because he cannot feel, move or do anything that humans can, as quoted in the radio drama; “never for me to make love” this became a small injoke within the fandom because AM is just a sexually repressed edgelord.
Weird AM noises- In all forms of AM voice acting, one common theme is all the weird noises he makes, this includes cackling, wheezing, humming, tsking and stuff I don’t even know how to properly describe.
Why cheese is made in Wisconsin- a shitpost made on tumblr that used audio of Harlan Ellison explaining why cheese was made in Wisconsin with the hate pillar instead of the usual hate speech.
Weird amount of mlp ihnmaims crossover art-
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
THE DEPTHS:
Nimdok x Dr.Mengele- In the game booklet, it suggest that Nimdok and Dr.Mengele were in a homosexual relationship.
(DO NOT RESEARCH) “Ellen’s run”-An incredibly upsetting and disturbing fanfiction made on fan fiction.net detailing scat, medical waste, humiliation and other upsetting things involving Ellen.
“A very particular kind of hatred”- An AM x listener audio released on Soundgasm, this is the first of its kind and was only discovered recently.

Nollywood Actress, Tonto Dikeh has really lost it as she threatened a number of entertainers and she didn’t hesitate to mention their names.
The actress revealed on Instagram that she’s in a new relationship but she warned her fellow entertainers to stay away from her man and desist from begging him for money as they are known to. She threatened to expose their “gay asses” if they go against her wishes.
The mother-of-one then went on to specifically name a number of entertainers including IK Ogbonna, Tuface Idibia, Annie Idibia, Eniola, Praise, Toyin, among others. She warned them and threatened to disgrace and beat them up if they cross her.
Check screenshots below. . 
She wrote:
“Dear Nollywood and music industry, I am in a new relationship now and, to God, if I see anyone of you begging him money, begging him to sponsor your shows or movies… I will mess you up and your whole life!!
“Idiots. Na if I find una beg abi. I will expose all your gay asses and the females to go!!”
She added:
“I WILL DISGRACE YOUR FUTURE!
“Ik igbonna, Annie, 2face, eniola, praise, juju, TOYIN and co be warned I truly dont want problem!! But I will beat you up,if you can beat me get ready!!”

It is believed this might be in reaction to her being threatened by the Board of Trustee (BoT) of Actors Guild of Nigeria (AGN) for her continuous attack on her ex-husband. Tonto went on to add in her caption: "I WILL DISGRACE YOUR FUTURE! "Ik igbonna, Annie, 2face, eniola, praise, juju, TOYIN and co be warned I truly dont want problem!! But I will beat you up,if you can beat me get ready!!" See below.

Obasanjo ambushes Soyinka on Olumo Rock
New Post has been published on https://www.thisdaynews.net/2018/07/10/obasanjo-ambushes-soyinka-on-olumo-rock/
Obasanjo ambushes Soyinka on Olumo Rock
Obasanjo ambushes Soyinka on Olumo Rock
Humanity oscillates between extreme opposites; darkness paints the beauty of light; fear skirts the periphery of bravery; ugliness envies beauty; falsehood stalks truth, death ambushes life; good wrestles evil; all in an everlasting tussle. And science cements this eternal truth into reality, combining negative and positive poles to produce light.
The ubiquitous beauty of social media is also its blight. Social media, a nonphysical marketplace of ideas where information is served online among human communes, is a bittersweet leveller. It’s the color-blind arena where the walls of difference separating the rich and the poor; the young and the old; the literate and the illiterate; the weak and the powerful, are pulled down to kindle seamless social interaction.
I trod the online space some few days ago and a roar jangled my eardrums. The rumble shattered the time-worn witty saying, “Egba meji o j’ara won niyan,” meaning: two Egba indigenes don’t quarrel. But last week, the white-mane lion of letters, Oluwole Soyinka, attacked the Ebora Owu (Gnome of Owu), Olusegun Obasanjo. The Nobel laureate advised Obasanjo to desist from struggling to restore Nigeria to the path of sanity, urging the Ota farmer to head for a monastery for purgation, instead.
Though both prominent octogenarians are from the same Egba community of Abeokuta, where they grew up, age hasn’t thawed their icy relationship. Soyinka’s mother, Eniola, was the daughter of Rev. Canon J. J. Ransome-Kuti, and sister in-law to Mrs Olufunmilayo Kuti, the mother of the late Afrobeat great, Fela Anikulapo-Kuti. Although conjoined to his art, Soyinka’s political activism propelled him in 1965 to seize the Western Nigerian Broadcasting Service studio, Ibadan, and force a broadcast of the demand for a cancellation of the rigged western Nigerian regional election about to be announced. Predictably, the election turned out to be the bloodiest in the country’s history. Both the laureate and the three-time Nigerian ruler, Obasanjo, an Army General, have always been locked in a battle of wits as far back as 1967 when Soyinka described the Nigerian Civil War as a pogrom. At great personal risk, Soyinka secretly visited Enugu in 1967 when the clouds of war were about bursting into flaming rains. Soyinka dialogued with the charismatic Igbo leader, Chukwuemeka Odumegwu-Ojukwu, on the need to nip the impending war in the bud. Obasanjo, who fought on the side of Nigeria against the Igbo in the 30-month bloodbath, however, believes that the Biafran agitation for self-rule was treasonable.
Baba Iyabo tops the list of men most favored by Nigeria’s political dynamics. Goodluck Ebele Jonathan ranks second on the list. Vice-President Yemi Osinbajo is also prominent on the list. With military discipline and self-motivation, Obasanjo, whose parents were nobodies, rose from nothingness to excel in the Army and lead Nigeria for 11 years as military head of state and civilian president. By providence, Obasanjo it was, to whom Biafra surrendered on January 12, 1970, ending the Civil War. Religious, Obasanjo is a Baptist, who recently bagged a PhD in Theology. Spiritual, Soyinka sees Ogun, the Yoruba god of Iron, as a pathway to a better understanding of humanity, underlining Ogun’s creative force as an ironsmith, and his destructive force when seeking justice.
If the Ebora Owu and the Eni Ogun meet on top of Olumo Rock, here’s what’s likely to transpire:
Ebora: (Pele, Wole) Hi, Wole! I knew a day like this would come when we shall meet face to face, alone.
Ogun: Aremu, tani egbe e? Clearly, your parasitic happenstance in political leadership has vitiated your sense of respect. You call me Wole? Is 1934 the same as 1937?
Ebora: Ha, sorry o. (Igbawo lo ma ge wigi e yi?) When are you cutting this your wig?
Ogun: When you desist from corruption, deceit, vainglory and distractive powwowing!
Ebora: Ha! Powwowing ke? Wole has come again o, Mr Dictionary!
Ogun: It’s meet I give you a verbal hiding to exorcise the demons torturing your putrid being. You’re the very grief of this country.
Ebora: You nko?
Ogun: Me? Did I oversee the treacherous impeachments of Senate Presidents Evan Enwerem, Chuba Okadigbo and Ken Nnamani? I neither sought third term nor enthrone brigandage as state policy which saw the dehumanization of sitting Governor Ngige and the annihilation of Odi. Go and look at my records when I oversaw the FRSC. What light did you provide Nigerians with after guzzling billions of dollars? Did I corral people in government and the private sector to build a personal library for me? Your party was a nest of killers, Bola Ige was killed, and his killers weren’t arrested…
Ebora: Dake jo! Stop all that nonsense! Look at his biabia! I should’ve sent you to jail when I was president! You’re talking big grammar like Zebrudaya, abi? Who’s the great grandfather of cultism in Nigeria? Do you know how many people cultism has killed in this country? In fact, you should be tried for genocide, you killer!
Ogun: (E ma wo were yi!) Look at this madman! Your claim to knowledge through your recently purchased Oshodi PhD is hereby exposed. In your depth of debilitating ignorance, you didn’t know that confraternities are part of university culture? In the dawn of our youth, six other visionary youths and I, at the University College, Ibadan, formed the Pyrates Confraternity in 1952 to fight societal ills. Did you ever hear about cult killing during my years in the university? Why should I be held responsible for the violence in tertiary institutions arising from your misgovernment? When you polluted the education system, and violence became the order of the day, I stopped Pyrates from operating in tertiary institutions. When splinter groups emerge years after and began unleashing terror, should I be held responsible? The National Association of Seadogs is a responsible organization.
Ebora: Shut up there, killer! You didn’t form a football club; it’s a cult that you could form. And you’re here making a noise like a misfiring generator. Even if you had inaugurated a beauty pageant, it would’ve been better. You can’t blame campus violence on me, Oluwole the cultist!
Ogun: I sure can, Aremu the zombie! Weren’t you the one at the helm when Nigerian university students were killed in UNILAG and ABU in 1978 during the Ali-Must-Go riots? Wasn’t that the beginning of campus violence in Nigeria? Ashewo, beauty pageant ko, beauty detergent ni.
Ebora: (Laughing, he bites at his bitter kola, clears his throat) (Wole, o gbadun) Wole, you’re sick. Did you hear me complain when you made all your accusations against me? I gave you just a small teargas, you went berserk. I‘m going to shave your wig today! (Laughs)
Ogun: So, you know?
Ebora: Know what?
Ogun: That if your leprosy hands touch my hair, you’ll be made whole.
Ebora: There he goes again, arrogant Capon Seadog! Black white man!
Ogun: Aloku soja! Useless ex-soldier, if my words can’t penetrate your waxed ears, read my lips: the greatest hallmark of existence is giving your all to humanity and your spiritual essence.
Ebora: Ignorance kills the cat. You can give your all in teaching and among your seadogs, not in Nigerian politics. I was military head of state and civilian president. I know better. The society gets the leaders it deserves. I heard you tore your Green Card. How more stupid can you be, Wole? You’re too impulsive.
Ogun: Impulsiveness is a virtue needed to needle government into action where wastefulness, inaction, corruption and injustice roam.
Ebora: Zebrudaya, tell your friend, Buhari, that he’s going back to Daura in 2019.
Ogun: Were you not in the country when I told him he’s treating herdsmen killings with kid gloves and that he should stop venerating Abacha?
Ebora: Na you sabi, Professor Ahoy!
Ogun: Jazz away, you little-minded lubber or I skin you!
