      Is that a diagonal panel directly in front? (At the end of the wall on the right?) Did they have those?

        It could be. ID didn’t have diagonal walls until doom. But then the person drawing could have had an unsteady hand.

      And DO NOT assume you can carefully touch them by just putting your fingers in between the big seemingly sparse spikes coming out of them. It turns out there are little tiny prickers all along the entire surface at high density. They will sink into your hand, are very painful, and very difficult to remove.

        when I was a kid I had to retrieve a ball that went into a brush of prickly pear. I didn’t see any spikes coming out of it so I thought it was fine.

        it hurt so much just to move my hand

      Meh. It’s prob pic OP’s cacti. Especially taking the grass background. I have these in my yard, from taking overgrowth pickings from my parents yard. I have to cut them back a couple times a year to keep them from over growing their boundaries or getting fat woody trunks.

      In general though, yes. Don’t mess with natural flora and fauna.

      These are cultivated nopales. They grow lots of new pads every year for harvest. This is like scratching a picture on a apple.

      You have to wait for a whole new cactus to grow per-frame.

      Still, faster than one of those $200 “Windows Laptops” with 4 gigs of RAM I see on Amazon and the like.

    I know some of you-all know about the “Tamales” lady…a staple of the Mexican community wherever there’s a Mexican community.

    But have you heard of the “nopales lady”? That’s right, nopales are not only delicious, they are also delicious 😋.
