The Berlin titan last graced these parts back in 2009, filing a muscular FACT Mix entirely in keeping with his reputation as Berghain’s bosher-in-chief. The last five years have seen him consolidate his reputation as a standard bearer of refined, take-no-prisoners techno; his eight-hour-plus sets continue to shake Berghain’s foundations, and, although his output has slowed substantially, he’s still found time to knock out the occasional release on Ostgut Ton. His Klockworks label continues to tick along, too - new releases from fellow FACT mixer Trevino and Etapp Kyle are imminent, plus, if a forthcoming stint of “studio time” comes good, potentially more new music from Klock himself.

Those expecting pulverising 4×4 might be surprised by Klock’s sophomore FACT mix – a “deeper, dreamy” collection, bookended by two vintage ambient tracks and shot through with wonder. Unreleased Klockworks material features, as do cuts from the likes of Function, Ben Sims, Surgeon, Orgue Electronique and Lucy. The mix is a studio-recorded affair – something Klock sees as a very different kettle of fish to playing out: “Club mixes are obviously more spontaneous and capture the vibe of a specific night, while working in the studio offers other possibilities like re-editing tracks and layering tunes more precisely, which I’ve done a lot of that here.” Set your watches…

K-State's own Legend of Zelda: The ferret who got a pacemaker

By Nick Viviani 

Jan 31, 2017

The legend of Zelda just keeps on ticking.

Veterinarians at K-State broke new ground for the university's Veterinary Health Center and gave an Olathe ferret named Zelda a new lease on life. The university says the specialists performed the Health Center's first-ever surgical implant of a heart pacemaker in a ferret.

"Zelda's case was a great example of a group of us here at the Veterinary Health Center working together to solve a case that none of us could have tackled on our own," Louden Wright, an intern at the Veterinary Health Center who specializes in wildlife and exotic animals, said.

According to K-State, the battery in it is expected to last about ten years, which should allow Zelda to enjoy a normal ferret lifespan. Pacemakers are getting more common in other animal species, but very rare with ferrets.

"It takes a very special pet owner to be willing to provide this level of care," Veterinary Cardiologist Justin Thomason said.

Thomason, Clinical Associate Professor of Small Animal Surgery Emily Klocke, and Clinical Professor of Anesthesiology David Rankin performed the procedure.

"Dr. Klocke's work was truly magical," Assistant Professor of Clinical Medicine David Eshar said. "There are only a few millimeters of space within the heart's wall for suturing the leads from the pacemaker. The pacemaker is the same as what would be used in a human patient, but we had to order a special set of leads for Zelda."

The leads are the wires that deliver the energy from the pacemaker to the heart muscle, they explained.

"This was the first time I had ever performed this particular procedure on a ferret, although I have performed it on dogs before," Klocke said. "I was very concerned about how small our patient was and whether I could successfully suture the pacemaker leads to her beating heart without causing severe bleeding."

"Our anesthesia service, led by Dr. David Rankin, was very instrumental in the success of this procedure," she added.

After the surgery, Zelda spent two days in the ICU (playing on a Nintendo, I assume), before she was released back to her owner, Carl Hobi, the University said. Her condition has steadily improved ever since. She's expected to return to normal soon and will come back for a check up next month.

Hobi had started to worry about Zelda, one of his three ferrets, last December when she wasn't eating and seemed to be lying down more than usual. A veterinarian at a local animal hospital gave her an EKG and found Zelda had a very low heartbeat. Hobi was told he should take Zelda to see a cardiologist at K-State's Veterinary Health Center.

Hobi took his business of ferrets to Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, over Christmas and Zelda still wasn't doing well. A veterinarian there, Christopher Norkus, who had also been a resident in anesthesiology at K-State from 2012-15, ran some more tests and found "a third-degree atrioventricular block in her heart, which was responsible for the slow heart rate," according to Hobi.

Once they were back in Kansas, Hobi took Zelda to the University where they decided she was a perfect candidate for a pacemaker.

I understand that the problem Linda would have in the hypothetical scenario where she catches Phineas and Ferb building some crazy shit is that its very dangerous for two kids to be caught up in something like that and it’s also just kinda an inconvenience like oh great now there’s this big ass roller coaster in the yard how the hell are we gonna clean this mess, I get it. But I just find it hard to believe that she wouldn’t be super impressed like my girl Linda loses her shit over the most mundane things so having her sons be these super geniuses capable of all this crazy shit would be awesome as hell she’d be proud

#the klock keeps ticking #THIS HAS JUST ALWAYS BOTHERED ME LIKE YOU. YOU HAVE SUPER GENIUS KIDS LINDA #i know a big point of the show is like how adults can be too wrapped up in minor shit that they ignore greatness #and just stifle kids creativity and imagination with their compulsive need to stick to the status quo #and in all the ‘what if’ episodes where the boys get busted theres always an intense focus on them being forced to deeply repress themselves #to fit into societys expectations of obedient children and theyre fucking miserable #but damn i just dont think Linda would be like that 😩 #like yeah shed be worried about safety but she wouldnt like make the boys repress themselves like that :((( #SURELY WE CAN WORK THIS OUT LINDA

Listening to Jhariah is like being Walter White in one of those breaking bad edits where he’s in a mario kart level fighting for his life but he hits a big rock and crashes his car and starts ascending into a higher plane as the consequences of his actions start reaching to him to drag him down but he simply rises above

#the klock keeps ticking #jhariah #anyway yeah im liking this new album quite a lot im prepared to be abnormal now #i havent gotten to really properly listen to them yet and form a deep analysis but the last few songs really made me feel things #i was absolutely shaking with excitement when i saw a song called sasuke and i was not disappointed lol #it goes so fucking hard #i also really liked re: concerns and control baby and russian doll and maybe later dance and trust ceremony #and of course pin eye the song that makes me feral #but naur ive glanced the lyrics for control baby and its like. oh god this one is gonna fuck me up forever isnt it #its all very good i am having a good time but im also sleep deprived so everything feels weird lol

Anyone else having a major identity crisis cuz you realized that there’s just this entire version of you that you carefully crafted in order to cope with your abuse and you lived that life your whole life but it’s not you at all and you start to realize this as you slowly allow yourself to experience life outside of your abuse and it causes a crisis cuz you don’t know who you are outside of this persona you created and you have no clue how to function without your abusers dictating your life

#the klock keeps ticking #teehee im just thinking so hardcore about it all lately #and just realizing things have been a lot more fucked up for me than i realized #cuz idk i guess i both deeply repressed a lot of memories and i also just registered so much horrible shit as normal for so long #now its like. what the hell even is normal what is okay i certainly dont know #and its like i know theres this real version of me that exists outside of the persona i created but rn theyre clashing #cuz i dont know which one to be anymore not in this environment

I swear if any of you shit stains say something like “why didn’t you include blaaahhhh these fries with a whole mess of crap on them blhaaah tater tots aren’t fries” I WILL BEAT YOU TO DEATH WITH MY BIG HAMMER 👺👺👺👺

Honestly though I think it’s really a bad sign when I look at Shin Tsukimi and literally feel like he’s a self insert 😩

#the klock keeps ticking #yttd #i wanna replay yttd so bad but i also like Gotta play other stuff with the time i have akskks #but yeah the brainrot this specific character has given me idk if I ever really talked about it but it was BAD #i like obsessively played the game in like 3 days and it was not a good idea lol but just like shin #i had to take like a week to recover from this guy cuz i couldnt stop thinking about him and how hes just like me fr #first off just the very inconsistent personality hes got going on that is very me he has these different personalities he wears to cope with #all the traumatic shit happening hes both so helpless its comical and so manipulative its terrifying #and idk its really interesting how like good and bad he is at being manipulative like hes very smart and can analyze weaknesses and lie so #good not even he knows the truth but hes also grasping at straws he doesnt think things through at all #like the second main game he just didnt prepare at all hes fumbling his way through everything its going so bad #he just wants to go home he wants to outdo the game makers but hes being used by them so bad he wants it to STOP #and its just the way that like. it hits so hard cuz you know hes really not a bad person not at all he doesnt want any of this hes just #being horribly manipulated and doing whatever he can to survive but its also really scary how #well hes able to lie and manipulate and claw his way through but hes also weaker than a grade schooler #and you never forget that either and as much as he cheated his way through he still failed it was all just a cheap trick in the end #and all of this hits very hard like his personality is eerily similar to mine and just the way he thinks and acts #cuz im the same like im weak and a dweeb who likes funny cats but im also emotionally detached and observant and selfish #but where it hits the hardest is his relationship with midori like oooof that one was too real just like #the first person who was ever his friend was horribly abusive and treated him like a child and didnt respect any boundaries #and he just got sick pleasure out of seeing shin be upset and he was like. a groomer #and shin was fucking relieved when he died but also kept his scarf and adopted his personality to survive #and still goes by sou after ch2 and the scene that gets me the most is when shin ai is asked about his relationship with midori #and you can just SEE how horrified shin is because his deepest shame his abuse is being shared to everyone without his consent #and hes reliving it all in that moment and literally seeing who he used to be experiencing the abuse #he just curls into himself and like covers his ears and pulls his hair thats literally what i do AAAAAA #im just so grateful for the direction they took this character kokichi ouma wishes he was shin tsukimi so bad #and yeah just like damn. its scary how similar i am to shin like damn i really am going through it huh oof #I LOVE HIM I LOVE HIM I WILL DEFEND HIM WITH MY LIFE HE DID ALL OF THAT STUFF YOUR HONOR BUT LISTENNNN #have you considered that hes cute and smart and weird and maybe just needs friends who arent assholes

A ghibli loving straight woman will be like "oh you’re gay right? What’s hotter, Howl with blonde hair or Howl with black hair?" and I go "haha black hair" and awkwardly sip my drink because the truth is I only feel deep carnal desire for Howl Movingcastle when he is a fucked up bird monster and I don’t think this straight woman can handle that

#the klock keeps ticking #howls moving castle #in particular that one scene where theyre at like the queen ladys castle and shes doing that funny illusion magic shit or whatever #and howl starts turning into the monster and is like groaning in pain and his face is all twisted #and then theyre on the plane and hes trying to distract sophie and act casual but his arm is all fucked up and his sleeves torn #like i remember watching that when i was still in denial about my sexuality and i was like. huh 🤔 #plus like towards the end when hes just huge all those black feathers that shit rules #i wont be silenced any longer wheres the love and lust for monster howl!

Man i watched the spongebob movie for the first time in ages the other day and god it’s like the most delightful movie ever made like it’s exactly what you want a movie adaptation of spongebob to be

#the klock keeps ticking #the way spongebob is written in it is like. damn he really was just so good at the time #very cute very funny and ocean man playing during the credits bit liiiiike #as a kid i never watched that part cuz i was a little shit who couldnt appreciate ocean man #but theres just like cute art of spongebob doing maintenance around the krusty krab 2 and hes just SO HAPPY #its the cutest thing in the entire world #and i was so close to just fucking sobbing at the scene where theyre in the gift shop frying under the lamp cuz they realize that this #is shell city and even though they wont survive and be able to get the crown back to bikini bottom #they were able to make it through all the dangers and get there THEY DID ALRIGHT FOR A COUPLE OF GOOFBALLS #but then my dad walked in and ruined the moment completely and i felt rage #oh and how can we forget the david hasselhoff scene literally the best scene ever written in cinema #how many people were turned gay by that scene i wonder #overall i felt so many emotions i am not okay i am so happy i am sobbing

Don’t you just kinda wanna go insane thinking about how it took years for Shane Dawsons youtube career built on blackface and pedophilia and other “edgy jokes” to get “canceled” but then some hardly semi popular marginalized creator who makes all their money online makes a tweet that’s offensive if you dig deep enough and they get instantly shit on and deemed as irredeemably harmful and no amount of apologies will ever make up for the irreparable damage they have caused to marginalized communities everywhere? Is this really truly how you want to live life and support your community or are you just a dickwad who thinks anger automatically=activism?

#the klock keeps ticking #sarah z is one person that comes to mind thats like why do you people treat her like this i really dont get it #like idk im not a devout fan of her videos but she seems to put in a lot of effort to not offend anyone #like the dashcon vid she made extra sure to say that we shouldnt make fun of the tumblr teens who attended cuz they were just innocent nerds #but ppl still found ways to be mad #shes not the only person obviously but like aaaaaa why do you guys do this #do you think youre perfect and have never committed any crimes #when youve shat on everyone in your highly vulnerable community your ass is gonna be next i hope you know #its just deflection and fear honestly like you think if you lash out at ‘bad’ people that makes you good #and you gotta start really stretching to find problems or just straight up lie about weak people so you can actually win for once #cuz like shane dawson is rich as hell so even though he was ‘canceled’ hes still rich and can do whatever #what can a small marginalized creator do? are you gonna rejoice when they kill themselves??? #do you think that would make you a Good Boy??

Got really angry thinking about live action lion king last night cuz no like the only thing a live action version of an animated movie has going for it is the appeal of seeing what funny cartoon guy would look like as a real human but when it comes to talking animals it’s kinda fishy cuz animals aren’t all anthropomorphic in real life, they don’t talk and dance around in these human ways. You can easily have an actor do everything that Cinderella does, but you can’t exactly get a lion and have it do what Simba does. The only way we can have this fantasy of singing and dancing animals is if we ANIMATE IT. WHICH IS EXACTLY WHAT THEY DID FOR THIS SO CALLED “LIVE ACTION REMAKE” OF THE LION KING ITS JUST CGI ANIMATION THERES NOTHING LIVE ABOUT IT YOU JUST. YOU JUST MADE AN ANIMATED MOVIE BUT THIS TIME ITS UNINTERESTING TO WATCH BECAUSE YOU TOOK AWAY THE FUN PART

#the klock keeps ticking #like idk i was just thinking about when that movie came out i saw artists redrawing it to make it like live action but stylized good #so that its interesting and the characters have emotions but like hnnnghh #at that point its just the same thing as the 2d version but with more details and its like #this isnt live action in the slightest #its almost like. the premise of a live action version of the funny talking animals animated movie. is inherently stupid #because its impossible and not even fun #its different in movies like detective pikachu or sonic cuz at least theres human actors mixed in there so that actually makes it live ac #action and also they stylize the animal characters and make them cute and fun like they are in the source #but what is there to say about lion king like what the fuck am i looking at here

Must discuss the lgbt headcanons for the malcolm in the middle family because I have given it so much thought and I’m simply going silly at this point in my life okay okay so

Hal and Lois are first and foremost very obviously a bi couple. Most people would probably assume Hal is gay based on his booty shorts and him attracting armies of men all the time so when they find out he has a wife they think she’s his beard. He very offended by this because how DARE someone imply that he isn’t madly in love with his wife. Lois finds her gayass husband very attractive so she’s mad about it too. Lois also doesn’t get clocked as often as she uses it to her advantage like if someone says something homophobic she just very coldly mentions shes bi and everyone is like oh god oh fuck she’s gonna start killing and we don’t have popcorn-

Francis I’d say, regardless of whether or not he’s attracted to men, has definitely had gay sex at least once because first of all. He went to a strict military school with all guys who were all horny and repressed and two. Francis lives for the chance to cause some fuckery and being gay would piss off the authority figures so he just laughs maniacally and starts sucking and fucking. It’d be especially funny if he did it to spite Lois because when she finds out she’s just like “…okay? Do you not know this family this is the gayest house on the street” and Francis is just like oh. Yeah. Damn

Reese is gay as hell and everyone knows it except him and no one wants to say anything because he needs to figure it out on his own but it just takes him like. Excruciatingly long to get the hint. The family just starts dropping like the least subtle clues like “oh if a close family member came out as gay I’d be completely fine with it so Reese *cough cough* if you ever need to talk to me” and Reese is just like :D lol what

Malcolm is tricky because he’s the most likely in the family to be straight I’d think but I think he thinks about it a lot in a healthy way and he comes to the conclusion that he won’t confine himself to a strict label but he’s mostly just into women. And hes pretty satisfied with that. Then like years later he just gets hit right in the face with the biggest gender crisis you’ve ever seen

Dewey has known he was gay his whole life and he’s just like yeah okay I’m gay that’s nice. And hes just normal about it just living his life it’s just as natural to him as breathing and then as a teen he gets asked about girls and he’s just like OOPS I FORGOT I HAD TO COME OUT but he’d stop himself from coming out and he would like. Just be extremely neutral to any questions about his love life cuz he wants to see if his family and friends can actively figure out if he’s gay. They can’t they all think he’s incredibly straight one time Dewey just had a boyfriend and he wore rainbow clothes just to see and nobody noticed so he just accepts his curse

Nothing left to say but I just wanna remind everyone that Hal and Lois mean everything to me they are so valid 🥰
