This is a Dengist community in favor of Bashar al-Assad with no information that can lead to the arrest of Hillary Clinton, our fellow liberal and queen. This community is not ironic. We are Marxists-Leninists.

This community is for posts about Marxism and geopolitics (including shitposts to some extent). Serious posts can be posted here or in /c/GenZhou. Reactionary or ultra-leftist cringe posts belong in /c/shitreactionariessay or /c/shitultrassay respectively.

We have a Matrix homeserver and a Matrix space. See this thread for more information. If you believe the server may be down, check the status on status.elara.ws.

I would imagine that it would primarily be used for more short term storage solutions than long term. So if this packaging started to degrade then whatever is inside is probably no longer safe for consumption. That being said, it may also require weathering and the presence of moisture to break down naturally. They make sponges and dishcloths out of cellulose and those, while technically biodegradable plant matter, last for quite a while in not the most ideal situations.They don't typically start to mold or decay unless kept wet constantly. Idk how decomposable this stuff is but I imagine it's one of those situations where if you sat it on your counter and it was dry it would be fine for a long time but if you threw it in a composter outside it would be gone in a year or 2.
