Opp started out match very loose and aggressive. Although by this point he had tightened up to a large extent, but still was a lil stationish. Question#1 Should I have chosen another line in any spot of the hand? Question#2 Call river shove?

All streets seem fine, only thing different might be if you wanna be zesty and RR PF. I don't like a river check if hes stationy, like you said.

River seems like

50% JQ

45% JX QX Desperation river bluff (AQ AJ seems so tangible)

5% A questionable value raise with KT or set

I click "sit out next hand" and then call

nothing wrong with your play after flop,
my guess is he had trips

his play had tightened up (you said) so his Button raise should have told you something to consider as you played this out...imho

 If you've been playing long enough that you know he's a very reasonable player this is a fold. Given that he's down like 6 or 7 buyins to you and you haven't said that this is just case i'm calling, although if i saw QJ i wouldn't be surprised in the slightest. I think with an aggro enough image a bad player may feel forced with K4 K5 here. Honestly i'm not really folding this to anyone who is down this much to me.

 I'd fold for sure unless I've seen him make thin value shoves before.
