"I Give A Damn"

Here's some insight into how my mind works.

Below, the innaugural TV spot for "I give a damn," a public service campaign aimed at making LGBT issues more publically talked-about - the idea being that the "I don't care what you do but I don't need to hear about it" attitude contributes to violence against gay, bisexual and transgendered people by keeping said issues "impolite to talk about." Nobel cause, tastefully executed, deserves the support of all thinking (or even just compassionate) people... all in all, very serious business:



...But yeah, I'll admit it: My FIRST thought (followed quickly by all the proper, compassionate and serious reactions, yes) was, "Whoa! Anna Paquin's into chicks? AWESOME!"

So, yeah... one-track-mind. Though I suppose it's worth noting that having the gorgeous lead actress of a hit TV show "out" herself in the spot is just about the most perfect (positive) publicity a campaign like this could ask for.
