Some kind of squishy/waxy scales according to this thread:

I’ve been paying attention to them a little more. I think this is from aunts. I notice them crawling to them a lot. I’ll check out that thread.

It's scale, which is actually a kind of insect, there's many different species. They suck the juices out of the plant and secrete a sticky substance called honeydew, which ants actually harvest and eat. Insecticidal soaps work, I'd physically wipe em off and squish em where you can.

So last time I noticed ants crawling back and forth to it. Funny thing after that last post I thought let me look at my plant now and record if I find more. Check it out.

Oh and Thanks for the answer. Now I can add this to my knowledge. I Appreciate that.
