I don't think there are any dogs.
someone is sexually assaulted
spoiler
Yes, a drugged woman is raped in the fertility chapter (no. 4) to impregnate her, and a man is sort of raped, remotely, as revenge in the cam girl chapter (no. 6). Possibly sexual assault in other chapters, too; I don't remember.

spoiler
In the snake chapter (no. 2) (surprise!).
a child is abandoned by a parent or guardian
Yes
there's child abuse
spoiler
A grown woman grew up abandoned by her father (clear almost from the beginning). Also, the father sounds somehow creepy on a recording, in a way that I think may resemble the way a sexually abusive man might sound. Something horrible happens to a little girl in the Easter Bunny chapter (no. 3). Possibly more.
there's domestic violence
spoiler
No, but lots of violence.
the abused becomes the abuser
Yes

spoiler
In the Easter Bunny chapter (no. 3): Stigmata wounds in hands; chickens emerge from them, and later on an eye appears in one of the wounds.
heads get squashed

Not sure. In the dating chapter (no. 8), someone is shot in the head off-screen (but we see the blood splatter on the wall), and someone gets an axe blade buried deep in their forehead/skull.
there's shaving/cutting
spoiler
In the bullying chapter (no. 1), someone has their heart cut out while alive. We don't see the cutting, but we see it happening from a distance; screaming. Possibly other instances, not sure.

In the fertility chapter (no. 4), someone goes somewhere voluntarily, but is then kept against her will. She herself uses the word "kidnapped" about what happened to her. People are also held against their will in various ways in chapters 6, 7 and 8.

In the Easter Bunny chapter (no. 3), one jumpscare (in a hallway) made me both jump and cry out.

In the snake chapter (no. 2), the teacher throws up a veritable cascade of a blackish liquid while sitting at her desk.
needles/syringes are used
spoiler
Not sure, but in the fertility chapter (no. 4), someone is being drugged every day, and we briefly see a bowl full of syringes.
someone has cancer
spoiler
No. In the bullying chapter (no. 1), someone has a heart disease and needs a transplant.
there's a hospital scene
spoiler
In the snake chapter (no. 2), a woman gets an ultrasound and talks to a doctor. Possibly others, not sure.
someone dies by suicide
spoiler
I don't think so, but in the bullying chapter (no. 1) we're told that someone's father committed suicide with a box cutter.
someone self harms
spoiler
In the first chapter, we're told that the girl cuts herself with a box cutter, but it may not be the case. Possibly other instances, not sure.

----------- SPOILERS ---------------- In the snake chapter (no. 2) and the fertility chapter (no. 4) - except what's being born are not children (in both cases). Both births are dramatic and pretty disgusting/scary.
a pregnant person dies
spoiler
No, but there are pregnant women in the snake chapter (no. 2) and the fertility chapter (no. 4). -------------- SPOILERS -------------- The first pregnancy lasts more than a year, and the woman has been told from the start that she'll give birth to a reptile (which doesn't bother her). The second pregnancy is forced upon the woman, is traumatic and ends horribly.
someone has an abortion
spoiler
Not during the movie, but in the fertility chapter we're told that a woman has terminated 20 pregnancies.
there is a baby or unborn child
Yes
someone is misgendered
spoiler
No. ------------- SPOILER --------------- In the cam girl chapter (no. 6), a man is forced to "give himself a pussy" with a knife. We don't see it, as something is in the way.
someone speaks hate speech

"Bitch", "whore", "slut" and more. In the first chapter, a teen girl is badly verbally bullied.
the black guy dies first
spoiler
As far as I remember, there are no black people in any of the chapters.
there are incestuous relationships
spoiler
No, but in the father/daugher chapter (no. 5), a father sounds somehow creepy on a recording, in a way that I think may resemble the way a sexually abusive man might sound.
there is sexual content
spoiler
In the Christmas gift chapter (no. 7) (pretty mild S&M fantasies), the fertility chapter (no. 4) (rape of a drugged woman, rather brief and not explicit) and the cam girl chapter (no. 6) (talk and typed words about sex + "remote-controlled" rape/torture). Implied in the snake chapter (no. 2). Hook-up euphemistically agreed upon plus a groin grab through pants in the dating chapter (no. 8). In the fertility chapter there's full frontal female nudity. "Dirty" words for sex acts and -organs are said and/or typed in several of the chapters.

Yes
someone is sexually objectified
Yes
the ending is sad
spoiler
Yes, in the bullying chapter (no. 1) (if also somewhat triumphantly/satisfyingly if you appreciate comeuppance), the Easter Bunny chapter (no. 3) the fertility chapter (no. 4), and the dad/daughter chapter (no. 5). There are horrible, but not really sad endings to the cam girl chapter (no. 6) (if also somewhat triumphant/satisfying if you appreciate comeuppance), the Christmas gift chapter (no. 7) and the dating chapter (no. 8) (also somewhat triumphant/satisfying if you appreciate comeuppance). The snake chapter (no. 2) ends sort of happily.
Santa (et al) is spoiled
spoiler
The Easter Bunny (in chapter 3).
there's blood/gore
spoiler
Lots, bad. None in the father/daughter chapter (no. 5). No real gore in the snake chapter (no. 2) and the fertility chapter (no. 4), but there are other disgusting things. The dating chapter (no. 8) is very bad (eyes in jars, foot chopped off, decomposing body in tub, axe in head and more). Lots of blood at the end of the Christmas gift chapter (no. 7). Bloody human heart in the bullying chapter (no. 1).
someone drowns
spoiler
No, but it comes close enough in the bullying chapter (no. 1) to possibly trigger some people.
there's gun violence
spoiler
Yes, in the dating chapter (no. 8) and possibly in the Christmas gift chapter (no. 7).
