There is not outright abuse portrayed on screen. However, one character is a teenager who is living alone after his mother "left for a drink about a week ago", and another ran away from home and it is implied they had bad parents. Both characters are technically adults during the course of the film, though one of them just celebrated their 18th birthday.

The movie plot revolves around drug dealers and drug smugglers. No one is outwardly stated to be addicted, however.

The drug supplier has an enormous fish tank and he has an orca that eats a shark on-screen. You see a small amount of blood and the shark wiggling in the orca’s mouth.

Towards the middle of the film, a teenaged boy is coerced into giving a b*****b to an adult man. It is thankfully diverted, but the entire discussion around it is a prolonged scene, and the only character who treats it seriously is the almost-victim. Another character pretends to have been wanting an orgy in order to avoid being caught trying to steal and is groped, all while appearing very uncomfortable. There is also a scene where a character puts on a strip tease in order to escape being murdered. A young woman is forcibly kissed by a man who starts to rape her, but is stopped. We see him climb on top of her and her fighting back. It happens, and also ends, very suddenly. Unlike the earlier scenes, this one is treated seriously.

One of the main characters gets bitten by a spider on their genitals which then causes a large amount of swelling that is shown on screen and then hospitalisation.

There is a fight scene that’s super short and doesn’t involve any major characters, but you see one character twist a man’s arm and his bones crack.

A character freaks out after being bit by a spider in a way that might could trigger an anxiety attack. He is rapidly breathing and having trouble explaining his injury, clearly in pain, and it ends with him passing out.

No actual characters are misgendered. However, there is a brief discussion regarding someone imagining performing fellatio on the p***s of "any woman he likes", and the response is "I'm not sure I agree with that logic." This can either be read as the character disagreeing with the idea of a woman having a p***s or that even if the person with a p***s was a woman it wouldn't change that he doesn't want to perform fellatio.

There is a brief scene where a wheelchair-bound character is dumped out of his chair. He is not permanently disabled, and is able to stand a few moments later. The character who does the dumping is immediately chastised, and the humor is more on the character being a jerk rather than the disabled character being hurt.

Despite there being characters of various different backgrounds, and this being a comedy, they are all pretty accepting of each other and the circumstances they find themselves in.

There are several sex jokes, scenes in a strip bar where there are several scantily clad women dancing in a suggestive manner, a scene where two couples discuss swinging and grope a female character, talk about prostitution, a scene where a character asks for a b*****b an erection joke, and one of the character's virginity is a plot point.

There is a small amount of blood. There is also a scene where we see a swollen and infected testicle. It is very brief, but graphic, including popped veins.

The main plot involves drug dealers, who often carry guns. There is one scene where a gun is used to hold characters hostage, and another where police are seen pointing guns at people they're about to arrest. I don't recall any guns being fired, however.
