In "Hatching the Plan", Microphone leaves the show without telling Taco, but frankly Taco kind of has it coming lol. In "Kick the Bucket", Marshmallow leaves the show without telling Paintbrush.

I wouldn't really call it domestic violence, but there's multiple emotionally abusive relationships in the show, primarily Taco to Microphone, Trophy to Knife, and Nickel to Balloon and Suitcase (all in season 2).

MePhone4 was mentally abused in his childhood. In s2 ep17 he was asked by the contestant why he created her the way she is [why she is struggling with hallucinations], on what he answered "Because that's everything I knew!"
It (probably) implies that he only had traumatic experiences and it was only he could give them, repeating the cycle of abuse.

The entire episode "Pesty Besties" is about animals fighting. Only two (N-Slash-A and Sprinkles) out of the 9 (N-Slash-A, Sprinkles, Montgomery/Sprinkles 2, Quacky, Nickel Jr., Flamina, Tootsy Wootsy, Diamond Crusher, and Utter Filth) survive.

It's not super plot-relevant, but MePhone4 has a habit of eating the cookies he intends to give out as elimination prizes.
Also, Lightbulb is implied to have Pica (a disorder where someone has an appetite for almost anything) and has eaten a stick and a ball of yarn on-screen. She also attempts to eat a bucket.

Not only that, but Soap is also a stereotype of a person with OCD.
And the R-slur is uttered twice in Season 1.

Paintbrush is nonbinary, and before the reveal, the other contestants repeatedly call them a guy or a gal, much to their discomfort. (note: they don't do this to make fun of them, they just don't know PB is nonbinary) MePhone4 even calls them an "unknown gender freak" in the Season 1 finale. Rude.

A character named Tissues has a condition, called "conishawn". It is basically just a consistant state of having the flu.

Not actual dementia per se, but a character is revealed partway through the third season to have memory loss issues of an unknown cause, which is severe enough that she can't remember her own parents.

One character jumps into a lake against their will and has an unsettling hallucination that nearly causes them to drown. They survive the experience, but it's still pretty horrific.

A character kills another using a gun. However, there isn't any blood due to them being objects.
