I dislike saying something negative on somebody his/her new gear but I highly recommend a better microphone than that Blue -
You can buy very good XLR-microphones for not much more than $100 from reputable brands. The only problem is that you would need an ADC and amplifier (with pre-amplifier built in or separate. A webcam is fine for a starting streamer but bad sound makes a lot of difference for whether or not people keep watching your stream. The problem with those Blue microphones, they make the voice sound very artificial, no real voice sounds like that. At the same time all voices kind of sound the same with Blue. I think that many viewers can tolerate mediocre video much better than bad sound.
I definitely would recommend another headphone given that you don't need any other equipment to use it. Better sound quality and more comfort. Depending on how long your streaming session lasts you might prefer an open model. Something like the Sennheiser HD 599 would serve your well. Probably Adam can recommend a few other models in that price range, maybe better models.

The Mic will pick up your keyboard very well, but your ASMR game is gonna suffer. Also it's your home. Why would you set up umbrellas? Some white paper globes will do almost as well the umbrellas and are more festive

Maybe someone from the Verge stole your PC parts? - You might want to see if the kitchen sink is there too. just in case.
