Tummy Ache #3 - The Lazy Issue
Long framed as a moral failing, laziness is a label wielded against the sick, the working class, the racialised, and the marginalised. Under capitalism, to be called lazy is to be cast out — unworthy, unproductive, undesirable. This issue asks: what does it mean to embrace laziness, not as failure, but as refusal?
Featuring work from artists and writers, such as Sophie K. Rosa, Tolu Agbelusi and Catherine Cohen, this issue interrogates the fear and fetishisation of doing nothing. The Lazy Issue unpicks the ways laziness has been pathologised — from classism and racism to ableism — and explores what happens when we step outside the logic of productivity entirely.
Vol. 3 is both a provocation and a space for rest — a reminder that exhaustion is not a personal flaw, but a structural consequence. In a world where our worth is tied to our output, laziness might just be a radical act.
Interviewees: Catherine Cohen, Tolu Agbelusi, Sophie K. Rosa & Dana Margolin.
Contributors: Samantha Friedmman, Ikesha Avo, Benedetta Mancusi, Mina Cousins, Ramona Jingru Wang, P. Eldridge, Ananya Kapoor, Alma Stritt, Keziah Mornin, Georgie Henley, Issy Hall, Linn Phyllis Seeger, Lucrezia Camera, Eloise Sykes, Lizzie Dunning, Ashley Huynh, Molly Rose Strugatz, Paul K Majek, Silvia Almeida, Emma Whitelaw, Joanna Grenfeldt, Anna Ticehurst, Anna Morrissey.
