Default Can you guys tell if i have a blown head gasket?

Do i have a blown head gasket? The other day it was overheating, but it could have been because i had a leak at the sensor under the radiator cap. My buddy tells me it could be a blown head gasket. Can you guys tell if anything is wrong? Here is a log of me driving it today. Thanks

If you're blowing white to grey smoke its your gasket (steam)

If its blue to black, its a valve. (oil)

if your coolant is missing and your oil looks like a milkshake, you got a blown gasket
