Pihole web interface should load correctly and display queries.
Pihole web interface is not loading any of the graphs or displaying any queries.

I should also note that this issue happened right after updating my pihole with pihole -up. The issue is only the web interface - the DNS Server appears to work fine. I have tried everything I could find on the internet including pihole -r. I have even done a completly fresh install so any help would greatly be appreciated.

I'm not 100% sure about what hardware. Is there a command I can run?

Is it a Pi, a laptop, a network attached storage, etc.

Oh, sorry. It's just a Laptop. Has been working fine for well over a year.

Is Pi-hole running on a VM on the laptop, or is the laptop running Debian 10.

Pi-hole is running directly on Debian 10.
Try CTRL-F5 in the browser to refresh cached bits.
I've actually seen a similar screenshot in several issues / threads today. Usually it is because the user is running the admin page behind apache and is missing a PHP package for sqlite3
See here:
Pi-hole 5 broke web interface dashboard · Issue #3354 · pi-hole/pi-hole · GitHub
Though per this user's debug token, their installation is stock lighttpd
I recon @ jfb would have spotted Apache.

I've tried this many times. sadly no luck.
Have you tried clearing browser cache or try access on another client/browser ?
Whats output for below:
php-cgi -m | grep 'json\|sqlite3'
EDIT:
sudo tail -f /var/log/lighttpd/{access,error}.log

Yes, I have tried this also. Below is the output of the command:
root@pi:/home/ape# php-cgi -m | grep 'json|sqlite3'
EDIT: I can't see any errors in the live logs.
==> /var/log/lighttpd/access.log <==
Try this to reset/default a bunch:
Could try purge lighttpd including config files:
sudo dpkg -P lighttpd
Ans run repair to have lighttpd reinstalled and conditioned for Pi-hole:
pihole -r

I have just completed the above - now I can't access the web interface atall. I get a 403 Forbidden message:
sudo grep -v '^\s*#\|^\s*$' /etc/lighttpd/{lighttpd,external}.conf
?

Thats not the config that comes with Pi-hole.pihole -r and selecting repair should have fixed that.
Can try below:
sudo mv /etc/lighttpd/lighttpd.conf /etc/lighttpd/lighttpd.conf.bak
sudo wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/pi-hole/pi-hole/master/advanced/lighttpd.conf.debian -O /etc/lighttpd/lighttpd.conf
sudo service lighttpd restart
And try again.
