What kind of cactus is this?
Looks like an Opuntia and yes the pads are edible.
Google nopales recipes.

You can eat the fruit and the pads but instead of eating the pad I recommend carefully splitting it and fucking it. The slick slimy feeling on your dick is amazing and if you don't blow inside they last for about a week.

What are the fruits? Those pods? I'm gonna go ham on this shit tomorrow when the sun is up. Hopefully it doesn't kill me
Originally I was interested in it's psychoactive properties because I know alot of cactii besides peyote have psy compounds.
Hopefully it tastes as good as the internet says

Have you ever tried it? He's not so wrong.
Let the flowers go to fruit. Prickly pear is fucking delicious if you can deal with the seeds. Think watermelon seeds x 10,000 totally worth it thought. Harvest the young pads. About the size of a hand they are brighter green than the rest of the plant. Also propagate the shit out of it if you like it just cut mature pads and stickem in the ground.
Take care of the thorns, speed I ally if you put your dick in it.

Prickly pear cactus fruits look bright red when they are ripe. Those don't look very ripe.
If you pick ripe fruits, remember they have spines like the rest of the cactus, and also have lots of hard seeds inside you need to avoid.
They taste sort of like a kiwi.

Looks like a spineless cultivar of Opuntia ficus-indica.

Use a lighter to burn the needles off.

The ones in the pic are still growing they need a little longer, when they are ready they will be plump and roundish the shape is like an avocado. The green ones are good to eat too, you will know because they rippen into sweet peach like consistency from slimy hard shitty feel. They are still probably 70% seeds. I just eat them some people say that the seeds give them the runs, I've never experienced this. Don't try to bite the seeds you will break a tooth.
You make some kickass aguas frescas with the fruit. It's probably the most useful cactus ever.

In one plant you have food, drink and fleshlight.
In the desert you need never go hungry or horny again.
