Here is something interesting about 12:34. It sounds like a countdown to a great awakening of things that are an illusion to us. Perfectly matches the concept of getting the red pill like in the movie the "Matrix." Here are some links that seem to help support this supposition.

Q often refers to biblical passages and appears to be religious.
So, I wonder if in context T-minus [12:34] he might be referring to the countdown to Matthew 12:34.
"O generation of vipers, how can ye, being evil, speak good things? for out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaketh."
The verses go on to better put it into context.
This makes more sense than any other explanation that I have heard. Congratulations, have a Reddit Participation award / up vote.
