Hello! I have a few questions as someone who’s not from the UK and never been to MCM London. I’ve also only ever been to one other convention, so forgive me if some of these questions are common knowledge.

I’m considering travelling to London since a lot of Resident Evil guests got announced and I’m a huge fan!

When do you reckon tickets will sell out? I have some things in my personal life that I need settled before I can buy tickets. I’d be crushed to think I have loads of time just to see it’s sold out.

I read about pre-booking an autograph/photo session with a guest. Can I see which guests have pre-booking, and where can I pre-book?

How does it work with no pre-booking? Should I expect to stand in line all day? Is it even possible to meet multiple guests or should I prioritize one? I’d love to meet all from RE of course but I don’t want to set unrealistic expectations. Are the guests there all day?

Does it cost money to go to their panels as well if they have one? I read about reserving a seat but I’m wondering if it costs?

Thank you in advance!

I’ve identified as AFAB all my life. I was a tomboy as a kid, up until I was 16 where I wanted to lean more into femininity after outright rejecting it my whole life. But jumping into it so late made me feel fake and like an imposter. I feel like I don’t fit in with other girls and that I’m not pretty enough to be considered a girl. I never get compliments from guys or other girls and guys have told me repeatedly that I’m ugly. I don’t know how to do hair or makeup. I feel like I’m not deserving of being a woman because I’m not pretty enough, therefore I must be a man. But I love wearing a fitted dress, showing curves and feeling like a confident woman. But something still feels… wrong? I don’t like referring to myself as a woman. Could that just be my fear of growing up? I’ve also never worn a bra before, I wear soft sports bras. Partly due to sensory issues and that wearing a bra means I’m a woman and I don’t want to grow up. I also don’t have a large chest that needs holding up, so it was never really needed. Would wearing a bra make me feel more confident in my gender? I feel like my chest is too small that it’s embarrassing to wear one. I keep trying to test if he/him or referring to myself as a man makes me feel something, but it just doesn’t. I just don’t like referring to myself as a woman and putting she/her just nags at me.

As a kid, I thought I was lesbian for some reason despite having never liked girls. But I was still questioning. I still question now, because I do find men attractive, I just don’t find a lot of them attractive, which makes me doubt if I even find them attractive at all. But when I do find a man I find attractive, I find him so attractive that he’s etched into my memory forever. So it’s like either I don’t find him attractive or I find him REALLY attractive. A bit NSFW, but I feel like I do get sexually aroused by women visually, more than men. But hearing a man’s voice does it for me, whereas a woman’s voice doesn’t turn me on in the slightest. But I don’t find women physically attractive, I’ve never had romantic feelings for a woman and I couldn’t really imagine dating one.

It’s worth mentioning I have autism and OCD. If you’re not familiar with OCD, it makes you question everything obsessively and sexuality/gender related OCD is common. Is it simply that, my insecurities or actual questioning of my gender and sexuality? I feel like I’ll never be at peace if I don’t figure it out. Maybe I should just be unlabelled to play it safe? But what about my gender? Sorry if this is one long confusing post, but this is how confusing it is in my head

Hej med jer. Jeg har en veninde, som jeg lærte at kende for et par år siden gennem en fælles interesse. Vi har altid klinget godt sammen, hygget os når vi mødtes og skrevet en masse. Men hun er ikke en jeg kender virkelig personligt.

Jeg købte nogle ting i udlandet, og for at spare på fragten, kombinerede jeg min ordre med nogle ting hun havde købt, så vi kunne dele fragten. Det har vi gjort flere gange før uden problemer, og det er meget normalt at gøre blandt venner indenfor den fælles interesse vi har.

Nu har hun stort set totalt ghostet mig i 4 måneder, imens mine ting ligger hjemme hos hende. Det er ting til over 800 kr. Jeg har prøvet at komme i kontakt med hende på diverse platforme, men hun svarer ingen steder selvom jeg kan se hun er aktiv og liker/reposter opslag.

Hun skrev til mig for 2 måneder siden, at hun havde travlt og havde været syg, og jeg sagde det var fint, og kom med forskellige forslag til hvordan jeg kunne få mine ting. Afhente dem, sende dem til mig, mødes, osv. Og så forsvandt hun igen. Jeg fandt forresten også ud af, at hun har solgt nogen ting til vores fælles ven i april sidste år, som de aldrig modtog fra hende.

Jeg ved godt at man ikke skal stole for nemt på folk når det gælder penge, men jeg så hende som en god veninde. Hun har ALDRIG opført sig sådan her og jeg ved ikke hvad jeg skal gøre. Skal jeg bare accepterer at det var de 800+ kr og mine ting ud af vinduet eller skal jeg tage det mere seriøst og gøre noget ved det? Hvad kan jeg gøre? Tak på forhånd🙏

My PC has been randomly crashing and restarting a few times for months now, but no issues other than that and it happened maybe once a week.

Now today it is insanely slow, I can’t get it to do anything. Even shutting it down takes minutes because clicking on Restart or Shut Down just makes it freeze for minutes before I have to click the button on my PC, otherwise it won’t shut down. Restarting does nothing, shutting down does nothing, I googled what to do but it won’t open the programs that seem to be able to help.

I’m not the best with tech so I’m not sure about the specifications of my computer, and I can’t open the programs where I could see that. What can I do? It’s been unusable for hours now
