I never know what to do in this spot because I want to bet and charge draws, but I think betting looks really strong and makes him fold a bunch of one pair hands that we're trying to valuetown, which is why double barreling air works so well here.

Anyway this is easily a fold with no reads.

I fold. Baluga. He could be bluffing, but I think he shows up with A enough times here to make this -EV or at least real high varience.

I would fold it too,but Baluga is about getting checkraised
or does it apply to a normal raise too?

Baluga is about getting raised on turn when ya got 1 pair, IMO.
