menu wont open

Hi, when I try pausing the game or hitting Y to load my menu, the game freezes and crashes. No other issues noticed, I'm able to interact with people and objects but can't get into the menu at all. Tried removing hats, clearing fridges, reinstalling game, clearing cache, and all sorts of stuff...

In game, everything works fine for the host, but when I go to the menu it won't open. I tried to use my chests to craft something but they won't open either. How could I fix this issue?
