GIMP is preparing to unleash a revolutionary new update—a high-performance, modern UI powerhouse designed to dismantle Adobe’s stranglehold on the industry.
To deliver the final blow to subscription-based creative tools, GIMP desperately needs testers right now.

how recently can i have installed it? like, yesterday? HOW DO I DRAW A CIRCLE
GIMP is meant more for retouching photos, not drawing shapes. If you mostly want to draw shapes from scratch, you probably want something like Krita or Inkscape instead.
But if you really must draw a circle in GIMP, you make a circular selection and then fill it in with the bucket fill tool.
i usually draw a head and then remove the unnecessary lines
Use ellipse select tool with a fixed aspect ratio of 1:1. Then Select -> Border and choose a width. Then fill it with a color.
Like yeah, it is 3 steps instead of having a dedicated "Shapes" tool with a bunch of options that would do the same. But GIMP is kind of built around selections, you do need to learn to use them if you ever want to use GIMP effectively. It's about as important as understanding layers.
