Yes. And the estimates are bad enough (orders of magnitude) that I can't help but wonder whether pg could come up with a better plan with better statistics:

-> Index Scan using activity_pk on activity (cost=0.00..40717259.91 rows=6538650 width=8) (actual time=207356.050..207356.722 rows=100 loops=1) Filter: ((state = 10000) OR (state = 10001))

Isn't the rows=100 here because of the LIMIT?

Yes. I was looking at the other side; I thought pg could estimate how much work it would have to do to hit the limit, but double-checking it looks like it can't.

TIP 9: In versions below 8.0, the planner will ignore your desire to
      choose an index scan if your joining column's datatypes do not
      match
