If you need TP as a necessity to survive, well, start picking out your burial plot.
I didn't say I needed it to survive; I said I'm stocking up on it.
Unlike men (who can empty their bladders without their knobs becoming soaked with urine), my plumbing is different.
TP isn't a necessity, but it's preferential to ... nothing.

The Biblical Story of the starving Widow and her Son......
"till, after a while, the land was parched, and the river dried up.
Then the Lord said to him, Bestir thyself, and make thy way to Sarephtha, a town in Sidon, where thou shalt make thy dwelling, at my command, a widow there will support thee. So he rose up and went to Sarephtha, and he had but reached the city gate when he met a woman gathering fire-wood; whereupon he called out to her, asking her to give him a cup of water to drink. And as she went to fetch it, he cried after her, And when thou dost bring it, bring me, too, a mouthful of bread. Why, she told him, as surely as the Lord thou servest is a living God, I have no food except a handful of flour at the bottom of a jar, and a drop of oil left in a cruet. Even now I am gathering a stick or two, to serve my son and me for our last meal. Have no fear, Elias said; go home on this errand of thine; only use the flour to make me a little girdle-cake first, and bring it me here; cook what is left for thyself and thy son. This message the Lord God of Israel has for thee: There shall be no lack of flour in the jar, nor shall the oil waste in the cruet, till the Lord sends rain on this parched earth. At that, she went and did Elias’ bidding, and there was a meal for him and for her and for all her household; and from that day onwards there was still flour in the jar, still oil left in the cruet, as the Lord’s message through Elias had promised her". - 1 Kings 17:7-16
I wish I could say I had the faith of this Widow, but my faith wavered at times. But when I could muster enough faith to witness it, I was on the receiving end of many wonderful and amazing miracles.
America, please.....try God.

I have enough stocked up for about a month or two. Around that time I will realize I don't want to live in that world anymore, anyways.

Why would you stock up on anything for the rapture? What am I missing? Sounds like a waste of time.

I don't plan on being around for the rapture, but short of that, insulin, bullets, & water purifiers.

To clarify ... I'm not stocking up for "the rapture."
We're more concerned with hurricanes, (now) winter storms, and/or community disasters.
I've learnt my lesson(s) first-hand/been SOL too many times.

FYI
To clarify. I was being a little tongue in cheek with the the Rapture/Apocalypse talk. I just meant general societal unrest and shortages that are expected to be coming.

No such thing as the rapture.

Well if it’s the rapture I’ll see y’all in the everlasting.
If apocalypse well I’ll fight it out and then ascend.
Peace

Rum and ammo.
The rest will take care of itself.

Personally not worried about it right now. There's nothing for me going on that seriously suggests an apocalypse is about to happen but if your conscience moves you to do it, go for it.
I always keep a 6 month supply of all practical things on hand just in case. I've done this since I got out of the Marine Corps in '93.
It's usually the order of:
Frozen veg's and meats (some from the butcher on ridiculous sales and some from hunting)
Tons of canned vegetables.
A root cellar containing year's harvest of root veg's.
12 handles of Jim Beam related products. Not top shelf but good enough for oft' drinking and potentially using as disinfectant if tsh-really-htf.
Actually have around 10 gallons of gasoline sitting around too (I rotate it out with my equipment to keep it somewhat fresh).
We've seen some weird stuff happen lately (weather, riots by the left, etc.) so I dont blame anyone for trying to be prepared.
But otherwise, the last I checked, God is still in control and will not leave his people to do without (and He will have mercy on some others because He's that kind of God).

Haven't yet set aside any gasoline; a definite shortfall that needs to be addressed.
Any suggestions on how best and where to store it?

The Rapture is no problem. My family will be gone. But for a SHTF situation I am stocking up on ammo, spices, charcoal, pet supplies, toilet paper, canned goods, tea bags, coffee, rice, meat, trash bags, baking items, and bleach.
