This movie is safe but there does seem to be a visual reference during an early news sequence - no audio or active v*, but some mess around the mouth and shirt in a blurry photo of someone

Jason shoots Joker’s TV and he’s verbally abusive towards her, but it never gets physical between them

early in the film, it deals with the main characters emotionally abusive mother. The relationship between them does improve throughout the movie, but we do see a child being told that her feelings are hurting others.

It’s certainly more amicable and bittersweet than I was expecting, but I hesitate to call it forgiveness exactly

A characters backstory involves being groomed by their primary caregiver and was in an implied sexual relationship underage with them. The perpetrator is a prominent social figure and is implied to have done it to others as well.

A running gag throughout the movie is an in-universe TV show called Suicide Cop and a brief scene depicts the titular character on TV getting ready to do this but it cuts away before that can happen

Clowns aren't depicted in the typical 'scary clown' style, but are a major part of the in-universe society

Two characters are eaten by a carnivorous plant (not graphic and played for laughs)

The main characters dead name is bleeped out in most cases, except those where she is not expecting it and it hits harder.

While the character isn't institutionalized, she is forced to take medication. This scene takes place while she is a child.
