I really like fanfiction. Reading and writing it. Nobody in my life knows and I plan on keeping it that way.

Fanfics, too. I love fanfics exploring what-ifs of a work, and myself wrote two or three of those, but assumers immediately associate them with the lemons.
Isekai. Same deal as fanfics, except with escapism instead of porn. (I'm a sucker for fantasy dammit.)
Machine text generation. Yeah, I don't want to be confused with a functionally illiterate tech bro.

This is it for me, too. I'd wouldn't mind talking about some of the fanfics I've read, but you can't even mention fanfiction without people assuming you're essentially reading porn.
