Animal death is discussed. It's then alluded to but more as a theory than anything else, it's unconfirmed

There is a very graphic and drawn out suicide at the end of the film. A character stabs themself in the chest twice and slowly bleeds to death while another watches. It's fairly obvious that it's about to happen for a minute or two leading up to it.

it isn't a slur on its own but the way "a homosexual" is used in some scenes is definitely pointed - given how gayness is also used towards a teen about his dad as a comeback meant to embarrass him
