Step down on you brake rotor then pull it out
Embarrassing.. But I don't know what else to do.

Don't push down too hard. When I did I knocked a ball out of the axle bearing. Pain in the *** to get back in without taking out the axle.

I can't push the fork up, its being pushed down on already by the spring, thus undo-ing the bolt would push the strut down (or the fork up) its arealdy where it will go

What bolt? the one that holds the fork? its out laying on the floor.
I don't know if you guys are understanding this, there is nothing compressing the spring and it is smashing the strut straight downward fork and all into the Axel bending it downward, like.. I can't push it back together to even get it to budge in the slightest

I believe the bolt he is referring to is the pinch bolt...
Either way I still don't think any of us can completely understand the situation unless we were there.

**** me, I guess maybe in the morning I'll go try and rent a spring compressor from autozone? do they have that?

They probably do
I know .. but I see a gap between the fork and the fork limiter on the strut .. wd40 or pb blaster it up and take a mallet or hammer to the bottom of the fork to get it up the strut. it should give you another inch to work with.
