2) Removing the thermostat isn't a fix. You just removed the car's ability to TELL you it's overheating & regulate coolant flow. 3) What engine is this? 4) My guess would be headgasket here, but I could be wrong.

for now get some of the cheap headgasket repair in a can and refer to their instructions. should work fine for the next few days or more but definitely not a temporary fix.
