My Viewpoint
AskUncleGary.com, an independent publication launched in 2025 by Gary Domasin, an advice columnist and contributing writer to SoCalMag.com, educator, and supportive uncle you wish you had.
Most young people think that getting older is a decline. It isn’t. It’s a refinement. We’re sold a narrative that aging means becoming less relevant, less desirable, less capable. In reality, what diminishes is tolerance for nonsense, for misaligned relationships, for chasing approval.
The words that follow are meant to be a wake-up call. You can either read them and be motivated to act, or you can scroll on and spend the next decade repeating the same year, over and over again.
This picture means more to me than I can put into words. That's my nephew, who we lost too soon, and my niece, who still lights up every room she walks into. They're the reason Ask Uncle Gary exists.
