You should have the ability to boot back into the previously installed kernel version from Grub. Is that an option?
See if this is available: https://askubuntu.com/questions/1512466/is-that-possible-to-repair-a-broken-24-04-installation
Have you tried making sure network manager is enabled and started?
sudo systemctl enable NetworkManager
sudo systemctl start NetworkManager
From a live USB do you have networking?
Does ethernet work?
Did you chroot and reupdate? You might want to reuse timeshift to roll back before doing so.
Could also try going back a couple timeshifts ago.
Yes try to do that first. First research how to restore from timeshift backup so you do it properly.
I haven't used timeshift in at least three years so Im going to give you this instead of relying on my possibly faulty memory.

Hay if the restore works might hold off on doing an update for a few days just too see if kubuntu had pushed a bad update. If they did they did they should fix it pretty quickly when they get a bunch of people with broken systems.
You might want to file a bug report so they can grab some info from you that could help an updater get pushed sooner and help others.
Very glad you got up and running. Hopefully they will get a better update pushed out soon.
Chroot and fix broken packages, you can try apt or aptitude. Chroot: boot from live and mount the hard disk
