Slipping, but only during gentle driving
My transmission has recently started to slip a bit from a stop, but only if I'm driving very slow and gently. Like granny pace. It's also taken to shifting a bit harsher, again only if I'm moving at a very slow pace.
some background info: the shifter was sticky, like something was caught in it after I got it back from firestone. As of about a week ago, whatever was sticking in it broke loose and the shifter moves very smooth, with little effort.
the car is also overdue for an oil and atf change

You may want to check the Trans fluid to see what color it is, RED is good brown is not and should be changed. Also you can add in a quart of Lucas Oil trans lube. I twill help the shift.
Not sure what you are driving here, and miles etc.?

Supercharged ss that just crossed over 100k miles.
the fluid is a brownish color, I checked yesterday. I also added some fluid since it was low, and it was fine for about a half hour. Then started acting up.
I'm really hoping this isn't a mechanical problem in the transmission. That would suck

I haven't yet. I put a bottle of transmission fluid in a few days before making that post since it was low, and it worked great for a half hour. A few days later and I have much less slip.
I think it was the shifter assembly. I cussed at my girlfriend for forever leaving her bags on it and it's much less slippery
