stopping at an understaffed, overcrowded fast food restaurant while on a road trip and crouching over your phone with your chicken sandwich at a corner table like a weary adventurer eating a bowl of unidentifiable stew at a nameless inn, the only one for miles of moor and wood, taking in the chatter around you but speaking to none before pulling your cloak back up over your head and taking t’ the road once more
just like a beleaguered spacefarer finding the only station for lightyears around and hearing a billions languages you’ve never dreamt of as you idly munch a protein slab with beans on it
Okay I’m pretty sure this happened on tumblr, when tumblr first implemented the little color-changing ‘t’ in the top corner of desktop mode. Someone immediately started complaining that it was ‘ableist’ and ‘dangerous’ to epileptic people. Of course, a bunch of people called them out saying how the colors didn’t change fast enough to cause a seizure and whatnot, fast forward a few days, the person gets blasted like discourse does, and instead of apologizing, they pose as their sister saying that the ‘t’ colors sent them into a seizure and ultimately a coma.
At least, this was what I thought of. Might not be the specific one op is talking about.

I thought this was about the Hitler kin user
The whom?
