In the very first segment, not even five minutes in, a wife attacks her husband with a knife and slices his hand pretty badly. She also throws a boiled pot of pasta in his face and tries strangling him.
She, oddly enough, is trying to put him out of his misery, but the imagery of a spouse attack is still triggering.

'Y is for Young Buck' has implied SA, shown via a shot of the janitor's feet/lower legs as he lets his pants drop/pool around his ankles.
'L is for Libido' also has the implied rape of a child, however it's not shown, the camera instead focusing on the faces of the men who are being forced to masturbate. NOTE: One of the men appears to enjoy it, while the other one who we've been following refuses to masturbate and vomits. He wakes up shortly after being raped by a woman, as he is the new 'entertainment' to be masturbated to.

"D is for Dogfight" features a man fistfighting a dog. The whole thing is shot in slowmo to hide it, but from the dog's body language and lack of stressful face-indicators, he isn't in any danger of harm throughout. It LOOKS like the man is hitting the pup in the face pretty hard, but the dog's tail wags throughout, his eyes never go "whale-eyed" (wide enough to show sclera), his ears don't pin back, and while he does go in to bit the man's throat, it's obviously very gentle. A toy hold, and not nearly as hard as a truly stressed pup would attempt.

'P is for Pressure' features a kitten being crushed under a woman's foot. They don't show the actual crushing, focusing instead on her leg, but it does show her nudging the kitten with her foot in the lead up. The audio is potentially disturbing as well in this scene.

'I is for Ingrown' features a woman restrained and gagged in a bathtub, when a man who we assume is her husband injects her with something [Wiki says motor oil] that causes her to scratch at her skin until she bleeds.
'L is for Libido' also has men restrained to chairs with one hand free so that they can masturbate.

segment L has men being forced to masturbate, including to a young boy being raped - the rape is not shown on camera but is heavily implied. segment Y features a pedophile who sexually assaulted a young boy - you see the man pulling his pants down in front of the boy and then it cuts away

In 'L is for Libido', the man who we had been watching get through every stage thus far is raped at the end of the short by a woman as the next round for two new men to watch/masturbate to, after he failed to do so watching the rape of a child. [The child one is not shown on screen, but the man's is, as he wakes up to the woman riding him. As he was not conscious, he had no ability to consent, and seems disoriented when he wakes up.]

Barely if at all. (SPOILERS) In segment G, drowning is shown from a PoV perspective, but there isn't exactly "struggling to breathe". The effect seems to be achieved by dropping a waterproof camera into a lake.

"K is for Klutz" takes place entirely in a bathroom where a woman poops, goes to flush, and finds her turd has become sentient enough to actively resist flushing.
"R is for Removed" has a patient poop into a bedpan. The act isn't seen, but the full bedpan is seen and it's disgusting.

Maybe in F, and technically yes in Y. (SPOILERS) F is very surreal and defies any explanation, but the protagonist is a lesbian and I think she dies. In Y, a gay pedophile is killed. I would personally be more concerned with the association between homosexuality and pedophilia than the killing of an LGBT character in this instance, though.

Yes. In segment X, people are shown mocking a woman for being fat. The film itself doesn't use this as a joke; it is depicted as harmful and cruel. Still, mockery of an overweight woman is depicted.

I don't think a detonation is ever depicted, but there is mention of nuclear weapons and fallout, as well as a significant amount of abstract nuclear bomb imagery in segment Z, including people dressed as nuclear bombs taking off like rockets.

The video for the letter "D" has some strong dog fighting violence of a man against a yellow lab but the dog lives and it has a good ending.
The video for the letter "Q" threatens to kill a duck, but it is never harmed or killed.
