Can you still switch to a working console/tty? If yes:  You might be
able to cleanly shut down.

And some side note (I'll come to the sleep issue farther down):

If your tty's are black as well I recommend - instead of a hard
shutdown - to try to enable your sysrq keys: with them enabled you can
stop running processes, umount partitions and then often (not
always) cleanly shut down - if you didn't do it so far:
https://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/marcelo/linux-2.4/Documentation/sysrq.txt
or some html:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/v4.11/admin-guide/sysrq.html

My magic key combo (you might have a different one - see docs above):
on a tty:

0 Press <alt> and  keep holding ...
1 Press <fn>+<print> keys. Keep holding both, then release these two
2 Press some some sysrq key -- release it
3 Only now release <alt> now

You can check on a console whether sysrq keys are enabled by pressing
'h' (for help messages) in step 2 ....

The kernel seems to be fine: I see in those logs that the S3 sleep¹
was triggered successfully, as it seems, both for sleep mode and for
waking up - and it looks very similar to my own logs, i.e. logs for a
system that suspends to RAM rather reliably. Your logs:

Jan 23 20:41:04 Vostok systemd[1]: Reached target Sleep.
Jan 23 20:41:04 Vostok systemd[1]: Starting Suspend...
Jan 23 20:41:04 Vostok systemd-sleep[24988]: Suspending system...
Jan 23 20:41:04 Vostok kernel: PM: suspend entry (deep)

Jan 24 07:53:26 Vostok kernel: PM: suspend devices took 1.173 seconds
Jan 24 07:53:26 Vostok kernel: ACPI: Preparing to enter system sleep
state S3

(I'd ignore the wrong times last lines: happens on my system too: the
log obviously only finishes for the event after wake up ...)

....
an 24 07:53:26 Vostok kernel: ACPI: Waking up from system sleep state S3
Jan 24 07:53:26 Vostok kernel: ACPI: EC: event unblocked


The culprit seems to be X:

Jan 24 07:53:27 Vostok kscreenlocker_greet[24921]: The X11 connection
broke: I/O error (code 1

See lines 413 --> 441 on your pasteb. log.

Also please note this log snippet:

/usr/libexec/gdm-x-session[17556]: (EE) Please also check the log file at
 "/home/bhart/.local/share/xorg/Xorg.0.log" for additional information.

To learn what's up maybe stop X completely: no gdm,
no gdm-x-session, no nothing related stuff (not sure if this works
nowadays) and then close your lid, press the sleep button or whatever,
and then try to wake up the system.

Even better: reboot with X disabled (no idea how to do it) and then
same procedure as before: sleep, then wake up ....

Regards,
Wolfgang
