USB hub -- sometimes allows pass-thru charging, sometimes not -- why?

Hello, all!

I have a Lenovo Thinkpad P16s 3rd gen that I use for work. When I'm working, both USB-A ports and one of the USB-C ports are in use with things related to my job, so that leaves me one USB-C to both charge and plug in a mouse, so I bought this hub: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0BR3M8XHK?ref_=ppx_hzsearch_conn_dt_b_fed_asin_title_6

Sometimes it will allow a passthrough charge but sometimes it won't, and for the life of me I can't figure out why. Can anyone help me out? I REALLY need it to allow charging all the time so that my computer doesn't randomly die while at work (I'm in the legal system and I canNOT have that happen!)

Thank you!

Urgent need for housing - 2 adults/1 child/one French Bulldog

I have some friends who have unexpectedly become unhoused. I can't comfortably take them in, but I'm trying to get them closer to where I am (they're currently in Virginia Beach). They have no car and currently working on getting their VA driver's licenses (current state expired) so they'd need to be within walking distance to a couple places they could find work (both currently with at gas stations -- one at Wawa who can transfer to any other location so that would be the priority).

Does anyone have recommendation of where they might be able to get a cheap roof over their heads for a few months while they try to get back on their feet? (Again, two adults, 9 y/o, and a French bulldog). Any resources they could look into?

Thank you!!

Mature adult couple (40+) together for about 2.5 years. Seemingly fantastic relationship by all accounts, except this one issue:

When Woman moved states for a job, court would not let young child move with her because "rocking the boat," so Child does not live with her during the school year though child wants to. Biodad has indicated no agreement to that now but maybe next summer.

Man (no children) believes so strongly that Child should be with Woman and says Child is so important to Man that it causes him angst and anxiety to the point he decides that he can no longer be in the relationship.

My tl;dr is he cares so much about the Child that it has to be all or nothing and he'd rather disappear from Child's life than be any part of it? Can someone help me make sense of this?
