Is it safe to play this all in like I did? Looking back, pushing harder on the turn, at least the pot instead of half, would have made my all-in feel much safer/informed. Is there a better way to have played the river against the worst scarecard in the deck?

raise more on the flop, bet much more on the turn, and i dont like the push on the river. also i advise not limp-reraising w/ AA + KK in 6max.

lots of observations
i dont mind but dont recomend limping AA. i can see why you did it but id just open for the raise anyway.
you hit a set and on that flop are probably ahead, the turn is blank as you rightly suspect.
2 aspects.
1. opp has a good hand (two pair/lower set) and is protecting in which case its insta-call if you can put him on those hands
2. opp has a draw to straight or flush (even both) and has semi bluffed by pushing. There is no made hand on that board that beats you so hell youve gotta call!
just my thinking
id reraise even push a hell of a lot more on the flop.
