I don’t understand how all of the weight on the Earth doesn’t force it to collapse on itself? What is the Earth using to provide this force that is stopping us from falling through. Obviously gravity is a thing but I don’t even understand that well enough lol.

Rocks are hard. The earth is a big rock. Imagine squeezing a rock with some dirt on the outside, nothing happens. If you want to break through, you would use another rock or a hammer, and hit it very hard. We are so small and soft compared to the earth, we are basically just dust sitting on the outside of a rock.
