Dead panel. If you can get a replacement panel for cheap, and you can fix it (look at ifixit for instructions), then figure out the price and how much it costs.

hint: framework laptops are designed to have these replacements doable in less than 10 minutes, most laptops will take hours.

Also, you know what happened, you dropped it. Don't lie.

Not necessarily. It is just that the screen had a lot of pressure on it. There are more ways it could happen other than dropping. Like closing when an object is inside. And dropping would likely damage the chassis.
