Last week, Lil Nas X once again sparked controversy by pointing out a double standard that seemed to be at play surrounding skateboarding legend Tony Hawk's release of a skateboard infused with his literal, actual blood.

Hawk's release inspired barely a word of dissent, but Lil Nas X's similarly blood-infused shoe release back in March led to him being called "Satanic," among other things.

Naturally, this being the internet, an argument quickly ensued among the two men's fandoms--especially after Lil Nas X threw a bit of shade at Hawk by commenting "Nah he tweakin'" in the comments of one of Hawk's Instagram posts, sparking a new meme in the process.

But whatever bad blood may have existed between the two legends has apparently evaporated entirely. To prove it, the two got together for a bit of extremely impressive skateboarding (well, sort of) and the clips and videos they've posted of their meet-up have fans cheering.

After the controversy first erupted, Hawk magnanimously told reporters at a skateboarding event in Salt Lake City that he understood and respected Lil Nas X's perspective.

But that politeness has since turned into a full-fledged friendship. Both men have since repurposed Lil Nas X's "nah he tweakin" comment in the most genial ways possible in subsequent social media posts.

On Instagram, Lil Nas X switched-up his catchphrase to "nah WE tweakin" in a caption of a photo of he and Hawk. And on TikTok, Hawk posted a clip of Lil Nas X skating with the caption "Nas we tweakin!" Aww, we love these guys!

But far more impressive was the joking "skateboarding skills" Lil Nas X showed off in Hawk's TikTok post by editing Hawk into his place just in time to do the actual skateboarding.

You can see the video here:

Nas we tweakin! @lilnasx


Oh social media, people loved the joke and were all about these two guys' budding friendship.

Nancy Mace Gets Blunt Civics Lesson After Claiming Every Muslim Elected Official Is A 'Trojan Horse'

South Carolina Republican Representative Nancy Mace was called out by CNN anchor Omar Jimenez for her lack of understanding of the First Amendment after she published a series of Islamophobic tweets, including one referring to every Muslim elected official in the country as a "Trojan horse."

Mace's posts came after Abdul El-Sayed won Michigan's Democratic primary for U.S. Senate. El-Sayed, a physician who campaigned on expanding healthcare access, strengthening the economy, and ending unconditional U.S. military aid to Israel, became the first progressive to win a statewide primary in a state carried by President Donald Trump in the 2024 election. He is set to face former Republican Congressman Mike Rogers in November.

GOP Senator Hit With Brutal Reminder After Slamming Trump Over Executive Order To Break Up MMR Vaccine

Louisiana Republican Senator Bill Cassidy was criticized for voting to confirm Robert F. Kennedy Jr. as Secretary of Health and Human Services (HHS) after he spoke out against President Donald Trump's executive order recommending that the measles, mumps and rubella (MMR) vaccine be broken up into separate shots.

The new policy would recommend giving the MMR vaccine as three individual injections rather than as a combined shot, while also spacing childhood vaccinations across separate doctor visits.

MAGA Actor Dean Cain Swiftly Fact-Checked After Doubting Dem Senate Candidate Actually Played High School Football

Dean Cain had a question, a theory, and one consequential mistake—he asked the internet to “do your thing.” The former and failed Superman turned MAGA try-too-hard fan took aim at Michigan Democratic Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed on Sunday, but this investigation had less to do with truth, justice, and the American way than high school football.

It all started when Cain took his suspicions to X and invited the internet to find the receipts:
