All of my roommates are running off mid lease and are leaving me with a $2400/month house that I couldn't even afford in my dreams (UPDATE, NEW IMPORTANT INFO)

Sorry for making a whole new post but there's some new info that I would like to put out there so that any advice I received is properly tailored
2 new pieces of info I wanna put out there
- I have come to learn, the 2 people who originally had the LL's permission I thought, are NOT off the hook. It turns out, they were only off the hook if we found new roommates to take their place. The original plan was for them to be replaced by 2 other people, but the landlord stipulated that a new contract will be required for that. Since no new contract is being written, our original one is still active and valid, there is NO LL consent for them to leave anymore like I thought
So the situation has changed to, my roommates are simply all abandoning me mid lease. No consent from the landlord. They are just running off and abandoning the lease plain and simple
- The lease explicitly stipulates that the LL can collect rent from any or all tenants, there is no division of responsibility, it is all equal
So....now what?
