The future is crazy.

You can plug in your cigarette. Or your car. Your book has buttons. Your Apple has WIFI. Your WIFI has a weird name, like “Banana Stand” or “Stairway to Evan” or “Durian Alien Fruit” or “Baby Whale”.

Well, hold onto your hoverboards because it has just gotten a little bit more bizarre. Edward Snowden — the former United States government contractor who leaked thousands upon thousands of classified documents to the public and who’s still in an undisclosed location Russian and seeking further asylum somewhere else — is now on Twitter.

So feel free to send him love, hate, regards, etc. It’s very American. It’s very free.
