III. Thou shalt not take the name of Medium in vain. (Even when thou art not curated.)

IV. Thou shalt keep the Medium Partner Program payment estimate day holy. Refresh thy browser until thou receiveth thy pittance.

V. Honor thy father and thy mother unless thou hast a really juicy story from thy childhood, in which case, post it to Medium.

VI. Thou shalt not murder (except thy darlings — thy latest article takes thy readers longer to get through than it took to create the birds of the air and fish of the sea!)

VII. Thou shalt not commit adultery (excepteth if it leads to a really smutty read which thou must then post to Medium in all its sordid glory. )

VIII. Thou shalt not steal thy fellow writers’ ideas nor the ideas of any other writer. New ideas exist in abundance! (Disclaimer: sarcasm from thy deity.)

IX. Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbor. (See commandments V and VII for loopholes.)
