A ZAMA Creative Online Space
Blerd Speak (BSPK)
You’ve been watching a blerd speak, on Blerd Speak
You may encounter me in an online game lobby with the username “BlerdSpeak.” It felt like a natural evolution from older handles like “Arm of Justice” and “HaloBoy456.” I’m Black, I’m a nerd—the calculus seems clear.
Or Simplified…
∫ f(nerd) dnerd = Blerd Speak😄
More than just a name, Blerd Speak represents a prism through which my varied shades and special interests come into view. This moniker encapsulates the nexus of my identity and passions, channeling them into a cohesive brand of personal expression.
In terms of publishing, Blerd Speak is an upcoming collection of video broadcasts and online spaces created under ZAMA Creative, my personal media brand. At launch, this will include three YouTube channels: a main channel and two supplementary stations. Each channel will focus on a distinct area of interest, allowing you to navigate based on your mood. Sometimes you might stay for a Dragon Ball video essay, and other times, you may want to skip directly to the acapella cover reactions. Intersectional nerd problems, indeed.
Blerd Speaks Tunes!
Music has been one of my first and enduring loves. Blerd Speaks Tunes! is a channel dedicated to celebrating harmonic bliss. While I’m deeply biased toward acapella music, my musical tastes extend across genres, with rhythm and blues taking the top spot. 🎙️🎷🎺
As a certified Pentaholic (if you know, you know), I aim to share first-time reactions to auditory sensations alongside original content. Reaction videos will only be posted a week after original material has gone live, ensuring a steady mix of creative output and shared discoveries.
Blerd Speak • Main Channel
The main Blerd Speak channel is a catch-all space for video essays exploring coding trends, gaming culture, anime reflections, and analog tech love letters. This is where all my eclectic musings will land—organized neatly into playlists so you can navigate what interests you most.
Numbers and metrics are not the goal here. This channel is a true reflection of the author’s whims, a space for explorations unbound by algorithms or expectations.
Blerd Speaks Mental Health
This online space is dedicated to my musings, observations, and reflections on mental health—both broadly and within my personal journey. I often find myself reflecting on the lives of my peers, friends, family, and the wider spectrum of sentient experience. How we conduct our affairs often reveals what we value, what we neglect, and what we take for granted.
I am no expert, though I have professional experience and training in educational executive functioning. What I share here is not doctrine but personal insight, drawn from the esoteric manifestations of my mental health journey—those that surface in both triumph and tumult.
Below are a few behind-the-scenes images and production stills chronicling the long road to bringing these spaces to life. My hope is to create a platform where like-minded individuals can gather to ruminate on topics they love, with a healthy dose of curiosity and camaraderie. After a few test streams and informal game broadcasts to hone my workflow, Blerd Speak will officially launch in Februrary 2025.

Blerd Speak • Old Gamer Back in Action
I love playing video games. Over the last 10 years, I’ve captured choice moments of collective gaming, and here are a few snapshots from those adventures. Some come from early test-streams on the Blerd Speak Twitch channel dating back to 2014, sporadic experiments that have stretched across the past decade. In 2025, those tests come to an end. It’s time to go live.
Besides, my gaming backlog is massive, and not every title needs an accompanying video essay. That said, I’ll be kicking things off with a specific new series, one that has been long in the making. Let me make it clear: we’re bringing some of my gaming history full circle.

It has been years since I was at my gaming peak—high school, to be exact. This series will challenge me to not only replicate the achievements I accomplished back then but surpass them. Halo 2 campaign on Heroic difficulty (Legendary can wait a bit)? Halo 3 campaign actually on Legendary this time? Can I hit Level 50 or higher in Halo 3 or Reach multiplayer (I played a lot of Halo back in the day)? These are the questions this inaugural series will tackle.
But it doesn’t stop at Halo. This series will be my chance to retrace my entire gaming journey, covering as much of my history as possible before tackling the backlog—always at the highest difficulty.
