Due to the general content, it's implied many animals are abandoned. One dog is shown trapped in a cage without any ability to get out and no owners to free it.

Kind of, Markiplier suffers chronic nightmares and ADHD IRL and plays a character that is physically unable to fall asleep due to insomnia and parasomnia, which can cause developmental issues as well as psychosis. Technically they are different disabilities so I’m not sure if it counts as he is disabled.

Not sure if this counts but in episode 3 (19:40-20:05) someone cuts open a skull with a rotary cutter (making an awful sound) and then pulls the bone away from the brain, making a gross noise.

A character with mental illness is violent towards himself, and at one point thinks he might have been violent towards another. Also, as sleep deprivation takes its toll, characters begin to act more angry and erratic, including those with mental illnesses.

A effeminate man jokes about fitting into a ladies size medium.
The “elephant monster” is dressed in a red illfitting dress.
Another character seems to be a bearded person in a bridal veil.
I don’t think any of these have transphobic intent.
