Time for more music, right? Cause the March never ends.
Not much to say about this one, ska bands will cover just about anything, so how about Come on Eileen? Yeah, who had that on their bingo card?

Ok, here we are, day 11 and another cover for y'all. Everyone knows Nothing Compares 2 U, Sinead O'Connor, right? Actually hers is a cover, in fact its the third version, Prince wrote it for a band he backed, The Family, and it was on their debut album, plus naturally he recorded it. But here's a different take on it from Chris Cornell.

Dirty Van Art (10 Photos) – STREET ART UTOPIA

A van with a dusty surface featuring a castle sketch on the left and a seated figure drawing on the right.
Dirty van art might be the most unlikely street art medium of all. Nikita Golubev (aka ProBoyNick) and a handful of grime magicians turn winter salt, soot, and road dust into crowned riders, fossil skeletons, anti-war messages, exhausted warriors, and even gorillas staring out of rear windows. The best part is how temporary it all is — one rainstorm and the whole gallery disappears.

Here are 13 unforgettable dirty van art photos, including a few alternate angles that were simply too good to skip, proving that a filthy vehicle can become a masterpiece on wheels.

Dirty van art by ProBoyNick in Moscow, Russia, showing a dramatic figure reaching into a beam of light on the back of a dusty truck.

🌫️ “Light”


Golubev makes the truck doors feel like they have opened into a beam from another world. The dirt is not just the canvas here, it becomes the atmosphere, the glow, and the whole emotional weather of the scene.


A dusty car rear window in Moscow, Russia, transformed into a realistic gorilla portrait by Nikita Golubev.

🦍 Gorilla Window


There is something incredibly satisfying about seeing a silverback emerge from the back glass of an ordinary car. The rear window shape and wiper make this one feel extra site-specific, like the vehicle was always waiting for a gorilla to appear.

💡 Fun Fact: The technique of drawing in vehicle dirt is sometimes called “reverse graffiti” or “subtractive street art,” because the artist isn’t adding paint to the truck—they are just selectively cleaning it.


Anti-war dirty van art by Nikita Golubev in Moscow, Russia, showing a flower stem and toy-like tanks scratched into truck grime.

☮️ I Pray for Peace


This is one of the quietest and hardest-hitting pieces in the whole dirty van art universe. The dangling flower and the toy-like tanks make the message feel heartbreakingly simple, which is exactly why it lingers.


A truck side covered in dirty van art showing a giant prehistoric skeleton stretching across the vehicle against a hazy city skyline.

🦴 City Skeleton


This one turns a truck into a rolling fossil bed. The long rib cage slides beautifully across the metal panel, while the misty skyline behind it makes the whole thing feel half museum exhibit, half winter ghost story.

💡 Fun Fact: Because reverse graffiti is technically just “cleaning” part of a dirty car rather than adding paint or damaging property, it exists in a legal gray area. It’s incredibly hard for police to charge the artist with vandalism when all they’re doing is wiping away dust with their fingers.


Close view of dirty van art by Nikita Golubev in Moscow, Russia, showing a crowned severed head and a horse scratched into dark grime.

👑 The Head, Close View


The tighter crop makes the severed crown and the horse’s face feel even more theatrical. It looks like a medieval legend dragged straight through slush, darkness, and city traffic.


Alternative view of Cyklops dirty van art by Pro Boy Nick in Moscow, Russia, showing a curled seated figure with a large skull-like head on dusty truck doors.

👁️ Cyklops


This is such a simple composition, but that is exactly why it works. The lonely curled figure feels fragile, exhausted, and completely at home in the blank gray emptiness of the van doors.


Dirty van art by ProBoyNick showing a tired warrior seated beside a fallen sword on the back of a dark truck in snowfall.

⚔️ Tired


A warrior sitting beside his fallen sword is already a powerful idea, but the snowfall and dark truck surface take it somewhere poetic. It feels like the exact moment after the battle, when the noise is gone and only fatigue remains.


Dirty van art showing a stormtrooper raising a hand beside the message 'Fuck the dark side' scratched into truck grime.

🚫 Stop the Dark Side


Blunt message, perfect medium. The stormtrooper gesture and the huge hand-scratched text give this piece the energy of a protest sign that just happened to hijack a truck.


Wide nighttime view of anti-war dirty van art by Pro Boy Nick in Russia, showing a truck side filled with faint skulls emerging from the grime.

💀 Snow on the Screen, Wide View


From a distance it reads like a stain or a shadow, then the skulls begin revealing themselves one by one. That slow realization is what makes this anti-war image so unsettling and so memorable.


Daylight street view of The Head dirty van art by Nikita Golubev in Moscow, Russia, showing a crowned rider and horse on the rear of a dirty truck.

🐴 The Head, Daylight View


Seen wider and in daylight, the whole truck becomes part of the composition. The road grime, snowbanks, and quiet street give the rider an even stronger folklore mood.


Angled street-corner view of Tired dirty van art by ProBoyNick, showing a seated warrior and sword on the rear of a truck.

❄️ Tired, Angled View


This second angle shows exactly why placement matters so much in dirty van art. The slanted truck body makes the warrior look even more isolated, like he is guarding the last little patch of silence on the street.


Close detail of anti-war dirty van art by Pro Boy Nick in Russia, showing rows of skulls scratched into grime on a truck side.

🕯️ Snow on the Screen, Close Detail


Up close, the piece stops being symbolic and turns almost unbearable. The repeated skulls feel like static, graves, and faces all at once, which is exactly what makes this detail impossible to forget.


Dirty-Van-Art

🚚 A Masterpiece on Wheels


This isn’t just someone doodling “Wash Me” with a finger. It’s a full-blown portrait rolling down the highway. The fact that one heavy rainstorm will wash the whole gallery away just makes it better.

I suspect most people outside of the UK won't have heard about the post office scandal, but it seems highly relevant to learn about now (given *waves* this):

For over 15 years, the software post offices in the UK had to use contained severe bugs, particular in accounting, that everyone at Fujitsu/horizon and the post blissfully ignored. Over 900 (!!!) postmasters were sentenced for alleged theft and fraud, some went to jail, some committed suicide. All because the software was shit and everyone who could do something about it didn't care and swept it under the rug.

Everything, including how it was uncovered, about this seems bizarre and Kafkaesque, but we better prepare for it to happen more often.

Why did the #Epstein Estate provide hush money to Trump victim after Epstein's death? Could it be that Trump was campaigning for re-election in 2020 and was unable to pay the hush money directly, leading the estate of his deceased friend to step in to silence the claims? The FBI report show both Trump and Epstein were involved in the abuse of girls.

A Trump accuser received a payout from the estate of Jeffrey Epstein! Today, Richard Kahn, Epstein's former accountant, testified under oath before Congress that a Trump accuser 'was given a settlement' by Jeffrey Epstein’s estate. This suggests that Epstein assisted Trump in concealing his crimes.

I'm a MDM. A Medium Dog Model.

I generate maintainable code which does exactly what it's supposed to do and can explain every single line and what it does with great accuracy.

I can also use my bio-mechanical thinking machine to predict future challenges and incorporate pro-active solutions, extrapolating from historical data commonly referred to as "experience".

And I come at the price of being only slightly slower than generative AI and costing significantly less electrical energy to operate.

Also, I can actually be reasonably expected to put some effort into my work as long as you treat me appropriately, because I'm a social living thing.

He just outright admitted this in public?!?!

Why would anyone EVER purchase a Tesla EVER again???

Such a statement chills one to the bone. He might as well start unironically quoting Oceanic Big Brother propaganda from Nineteen Eighty-Four.

Freedom is slavery!

For several years now, public EV charging points in Amsterdam have also been used to provide temporary power supplies for construction projects and events, for example. The city is now actively promoting this as an alternative to diesel generators on construction sites.

in reply to Jaap Burger

i don't know about Amsterdam but the building code here demands "construction outlets" for that since "ever". Never heard a diesel generator, except for compressed air. And where is the problem in hooking into some cable? That's done in an hour. I guess some weird legal issues are the true culprits for the use of generators.

So, because I'm cheap, I buy clearance food at the local grocery store, sandwiches, salads, microwavable meals, the stuff you find up in the deli or prepared food area, freeze it, then defrost it when I'm ready. This stuff isn't expired, but it is sell by the day I get it.

Today's second lunch/first dinner was going to be chicken tenders, corn and mashed potatoes with gravy. Took the lid off as you have to remove it to microwave it, and…

The mashed potatoes are grey. Ummm, yeah, I think we'll skip that.

I have no clue how ya'll actually FULLY clean your fountain pens, like, fully residue-free.

By now I've accepted I'll just need a seperate converter for each ink, as I don't have the feeling any non-metal part ever gets fully clean with just water.

Ah well, time to let it all rest in water over night for the occasional ink refresher. 😅😭
