Die Frage ist nicht, was mache ich hier.

what kind of nonsense at home I'm keeping myself out of

...if it's "Blödsinn" that the subject would rather stay out of.
Or (if it's "Blödsinn" that he/she is actually fond of or attached to):
"what kind of nonsense at home I'm missing out on".
I need more context to judge which is the case here.
