 This one seems a global wordpress bug across several plugins and modules.

 I went to my Tablepress to get a shortcode. That's where I first noticed
 the bug. (See image 1). By pressing the Shortcode link, nothing loaded.
 Usually there is a popup window with the shortcode that allows me to copy
 the code.

 To test if this was an isolated Tablepress bug, I visited other wordpress
 functions and the bug persisted.

 I visited the Comments module which is part of wordpress. Then I clicked
 on Quick Edit. Nothing happened. I clicked REPLY. Nothing happened. EDIT
 works.

 So if it is a link that opens a popup or displays info within the same
 page, that won't show up. If the link loads a different page, then it
 works.

 I went to another plugin named Tabs Pro. Quick edit didn't work either.

 I went to PAGES which is part of WordPress. Quick Edit didn't work.

 I went to POST and ALL POSTS. Quick Edit doesn't work.

 I went to MEDIA in the left menu. No images were displayed. Blank page
 except for the wordpress left menu.

 After upgrading to WordPress 5.5.1 I am also getting random errors simply
 by visiting all these modules within the dashboard:

 "There has been a critical error on your website. Please check your site
 admin email inbox for instructions."

 Happens once every 3-4 browsing through the modules. When I visit the next
 page, the error isn't repeated until next random browse to another page or
 module.

 On another note, I am getting a random

Comment (by TobiasBg):

 Thanks for your report, and sorry for the trouble.

 Most likely, you are affected by the “jQuery Migrate is disabled by
 default” change in WP 5.5 that is explained at
 https://wordpress.org/support/topic/read-this-first-wordpress-5-5-master-
 list/#post-13238244
 A short-term fix might be to install the mentioned plugin from
 https://wordpress.org/plugins/enable-jquery-migrate-helper/ on your site.
 However, this is not a real fix to the error, which is most likely raised
 in your theme. In more detail, some theme JavaScript file should not be
 using the outdated jQuery “live()” function anymore, but its replacement
 “on()”. You could maybe try to contact the theme support team and ask them
 to fix the theme.
