Villian is quite agro and could be betting worse hads / draws on the flop. The minbet on the flop is often a draw trying to set the price (a sort of block bet) so the raise is good obv. The turn card sucks OOP. It brings so many hands thay beat you (straight draws / flush / JQ fot 2 pair) that I prob check here although i might consider a call on the turn as villian is aggressive and could auto bet when checked to. As played I check the river and fold to a reasonable bet.

I am probably check calling this river and taking notes. I like flop raise and turn bet. If you bet river what calls you that you beat (you could say this on turn but betting turn allows you to find out who hit that flush or Q) Also you can't stand a raise on river either and have showdown value. I doubt a flush gets turned over here but I think we could be beat here enough to get passive. That Qd was the vomit card.
