Default 55 flop spot

I watched my friend play this hand and I was at a loss on what to do on the flop. All options seems slightly appealing to me. Its a 15/30 (6 handed) online game that is juicy where pretty much everybody can be regarded as loose and passive.

Anyway, CO limps, hero raises on the button with 55, both blinds call, and now CO 3 bets, everyone calls. CO is a goofball so the 3-bet doesn't mean much.

Flop: Q 9 3 rainbow. Checked to the 3-bettor who bets, hero...?

I dont see much point in raising, you prolly are behind and even if by some mircale you arent, the loose passives arent folding for 2 bets on a board like this. I call tho cuz I think the pot is big enough

I would fold the flop, and I wouldnt iso with 55 if the players in the blinds are loose, just overlimp.

ah, i was thinking of this hand from the point of are we ahead, not from pot odds to catch up.
I guess I could see peeling one and folding turn unimproved

I guess this isn't as close to a raise as I initially thought. What if we has 1010, or, if only one of the blinds called. Are you guys raising yet?
