Maybe it's some kind of hardware failure and your gentoo is otherwise fine.

One part of me hopes so as I won't lose days worth of configuring shit, but at the same time I'm totally broke and can't afford to drop 50-100 bucks on whatever's fucked

If you can't fix it yourself, you shouldn't be using Gentoo.

Anyways, it's unable to mount the root device, as the screenshot says, so make sure the HDD with the root partition is connected & working, and check /etc/fstab through a chroot to see if it's pointing to the right partition.
