Diagnosis time! Because fuck me, I might be in over my head here.
So, a few days ago I started having an interesting new problem with my clutch: that being on occasion, when I press the clutch pedal down it won't come back up/re-engage unless I dig under it with my foot and bring it back up manually. I've checked to make sure it wasn't leaking/low on fluid, which it isn't. Haven't checked the clutch master cylinder yet, but that's definitely next on my list. It has gotten air in the system before, but that was because I was a retard and didn't top it up, but all the air was bled out of the system ages ago, and the problem caused from that was completely different.
Honestly, I'm pretty retarded when it comes to transmission/drivetrain issues, so if any of you guys have any educated guesswork, I'm all ears. My gut feeling says there might be air in the system again, but nothing should be causing that, and the problem is different from the last time that happened.

what car?
my miata did similar shit when the slave cylinder went, lost all pressure in the clutch when it fully went too

Might be related then, it's a. '86 RX-7, using the N/A transmission.
The odd thing is that even when it happens, there isn't really any clutch slip that I've noticed. Like there's maybe 2cm of travel between "fully engaged" and "fully disengaged".

Replace the slave cylinder

No replace the master cylinder, it's not the slave. That said, for the price of a new slave ($9) and the fact that your going to be bleeding it up anyway may as well do both

Gonna take a gander and say throw out bearing could have something to do with this

Not even close, you dumbass.
OP, bleed out the air once again. If it starts happening after that again, replace the slave cylinder.

Truth is; I don't know as much about hydraulic systems as I'd like.
And apparently the same can be applied to semi-colons.
