Do you have a bootable drive at all? USB to USB-C adapters can be had!
Can you boot to the recovery partition on the computer and reset your account password?
Or, login to your WiFi router from another device and change the password to connect to it?
I may be getting ahead of myself on that one... have you tried just rebooting the WiFi router? Just had that happen to my mom last week. She couldn't get one of her devices to connect to WiFi, even though nothing had changed. I finally talked her through finding which "box" was her WiFi Router, and power cycling it (you'd think she was landing a 747 by radio...), and then the device connected just fine.
And yeah, DO write down your computer password. Been there, done that!
