“Lawmakers in the lower house voted in favor of the measure late Thursday. It had already been approved by the Senate.
The law grants transgender people the right to get an operation that matches their gender identity. It will be paid by the Uruguayan state along with hormone treatments.
The law also ensures a minimum number of transgender people are given public jobs in the next 15 years.
It mandates that 1 percent of government jobs be reserved and establishes a pension to compensate transgender people who were persecuted during Uruguay’s 1973-1985 military dictatorship.”

RIP RIP RIP i can never interact with my neighbor again holy fuck
i was outside w/ my cat just now. and he went behind a shrub for a bit, and me not realizing my neighbor was on the other side of that same shrub, poked my head round and said way louder than necessary, “my SCRUMPTIOUS darling boy, what ever are you doing over there??”
and this 40-something man i very rarely speak to handled it w/ remarkable grace and very tentatively responded “…..watering my.. roses? you?”
I found a company called “Frantic Meerkat” who makes journals whose sole purpose is to call me out
