Double-check that your APT sources are exactly what you expect them to be.
Clean your APT cache. Then update it.
Try to fix broken packages again with apt install.
If the problem persists, look at every single package mentioned in the error. Go to the Debian packages website and look up what the current version for your release is. If there are any mismatches, try to resolve them by uninstalling these packages until apt install completes without error again. Make sure to reinstall the right version of your packages again.
Given your other comments about manipulating post installation scripts for some time, if the above doesn’t work for you, consider backing up your data and reinstalling a fresh setup.
I have now fixed the apt issue. Biw I’m just stuck with the startx not working. I’ve already completely reinstalled my nvidia drivers but I still get the same errors in the Xorg logs. In case you are wondering, these are the logs

Are you aware of Nvidia recently releasing different versions of their kernel modules? There’s an open-source and a proprietary flavor. Make sure you have the right one selected for your hardware and fallback to nuvoueau if need be.
EDIT: I kinda forgot to actually mention my problem. When booting nornall, I get stuck at a lonely white blinking cursor on a black screen, so startx seems to make some problems. I enter a TTY and run startx and this is what I get when running startx:
output of startx
What was the output ? It is not visible for me here.
Were you using startx successfully before ?
Or are you reverting to trying startx and you did use some graphical display manager like gdm, sddm or lightdm before ?
Could it be a disk space problem ? If you run out of space trouble can happen with various applications.
Can you boot from a previous kernel (At the GRUB or systemd boot menu) and see what happens ?
According to Dan Harmon on his podcast, there exists a director’s commentary of Zardoz where the director starts it off saying something like “hello, my name is [director] and I’ll be the first to admit this one… kind of got away from me”
It’s like pure concentrated essence of 70’s. I actually really do like it too; like I said in another comment it’s not what I’d call a good movie as such, but the ridiculous camp is part of the fun for me. What’s not to love about a weird-as-shit 70’s dystopian scifi romp that’s like Elysium on tons of LSD?
It’s, uh… it’s interesting. I wouldn’t call it a good movie exactly, but it’s not terrible either – very campy, very weird, often funny without meaning to be, and clearly a product of the 70’s, but it’s a fun and ridiculous watch.
Lots of people say it’s incomprehensible because they just focus on the weird shit (of which there is plenty), but it’s a pretty standard “dystopian future where the elite live lives of plenty by subjugating masses who live in squalor” trope at its core. Like Elysium but made by hippies
Well, I guess that as long as something is still remembered, it still lives on even if just in peoples’ memories. So in a way Zardoz is going to live on much longer than most of us, who’ll be forgotten in just a couple of generations
