This happens if you have Eco Lifestyle.
If you have a Sim with the "handy" trait from finishing the Nerd Brain aspiration and they instant upgrade the toilet, it applies the "composting container" upgrade. Or you might have added that upgrade manually. Either way, that toilet almost certainly has a composting contaner.
If you have a composting container and don't remove the compost the toilet catches fire. The option to remove the compost doesn't appear unless you have an insect farm, however.
If anyone wants to see this in action, LilSimsie's short lifespan legacy includes one of these toilets.
@acoxshesIf you're not sure if you have the composting container, click upgrade and see if that option is already checked off.

It would just be nice to have my sim pee in peace...
A doctor will ask, "does it burn when you pee?"..... šš„³š Yes, if you have eco and upgraded your toilet to compost, it will set on fire if it's too full. Get the insect house, click on the toilet and feed the insects with the compost from the toilet. That should fix it.
I'm pretty sure doing "instant upgrade" on toilets automatically adds the composting upgrade, which will eventually cause your toilet to burst into flames if you don't realize it was installed. Not sure if this is a feature or a bug but I noticed it a couple patches ago. I manually added each upgrade I wanted when I figured out what was happening.
