Something's up with my stock clutch

I had my clutch adjusted to grab as low as possible when I first got the car and it felt great with it grabbing about an inch off the floor. Understandably, the clutch would grab higher and higher as it wore down (now grabbing about 2" off the floor).

Very randomly over the course of the last 1-1.5 years the clutch has been acting up. When I cold start it, there'd be a lot of play with the clutch pedal. Sometimes I can still put it in gear, sometimes I have to pump away at the clutch for 10 minutes for me to muscle it into gear. When I can get it into gear, the clutch grabs super low, maybe .5" off the floor, which feels nice and race-y but I know that's not necessarily a good sign either. After about 10 minutes of driving, it always returns back to normal. There is no particular pattern of when this happens. It could be 90F or 20F out, it could happen after not driving for a week or it happens just 6-7 hours later. It could not happen for months or it could happen once every 1-2 weeks or so. The clutch fluid was changed roughly around 2 years ago with ATE blue.
