btw im pretty sure id fld 88 t a shove anyway but my hand is actually decent that i shudnt be doing anything with that.
I think you should try thinking about 88 and QQ similar in this spot. Would you c/r QQ here? If you did... would you fold to a shove? I think the only real difference between the two is that QQ has better equity when he's shoving FD's.

I think they are pretty similar, cause I don't think he is bet/shoving 99-JJ in this spot that often, nor do I think he'd barrel them if you c/c'd.. unless he put you as a station.

And yah 44 as a bluff, cause I think he bets this flop with all pairs 55+, but most of them will have a hard time continuing. Ax is good for the equity of the ace, and Ahx is good, cause you'll be able to barrel heart turns with more backdoor equity.
