The Jamazon interface is really nice. I like how clicking on the order number takes you to the email. But I'm not going spend much time on there, after seeing his order for Lolita next to orders for kid toys.

Along with the orders for kids school uniform skirts a bit later.. tough viewing in context.

Makes it unsettling when it then shows orders for books you've also read. Hard to swallow having anything in common with such a person.

I would have also assumed he got his clothes from much fancier places than Amazon, considering his wealth. Can't beat two day shipping I guess.

Altogether his Amazon orders are disturbing in places, but also somewhat humanizing, which is not what I expected.

I am obviously not defending him or anything, but it always puzzles me how any of this confuses people. Whoever we may be, we are also humans, sharing common human traits and habits, and other people are just as real as we are. Every living moment, you unavoidably share at least some of the common beliefs, ideas, preferences, biases, habits, norms, values, goals, desires, fears, tastes, jokes, expectations, opinions and more with people you'd otherwise absolutely abhor.

It's very disconcerting to think that this "innocent" toy or clothing I see my children playing with as "tainted" by this monster. Suddenly he's not just some nebulous monster out there, but in some way the idea of him is here with my children, arousing protective instincts without anything in particular to direct that energy towards.

It also shows him as a human like other humans, which then makes me ponder is that person walking down the street also a monster? Could I become a monster like Epstein?

Such thoughts are very disconcerting

I really do wish more people in society would think about this - "The Banality of Evil" and all that. Maybe then we'd all be better at preventing the spread of this kind of evil.

Interesting. The majority of items seems to be books.
