bonus if it’s not just horizontal stripes
@hierarchon i'm imagining some sort of really stylish riff on the little I/O "power on" icon
Obviously, it's this ( https://qph.fs.quoracdn.net/main-qimg-7e242b0a3465792457f6bb11a3ae1959 )
But with your queer villainy lightning bolt going into the circle instead of a simple line.
Fun fact, this particular symbol is meant to be the synthesis of a circle (the "off" symbol" in tech) and the line (symbolizing that power is flowing)
Stylizing the line, which symbolizes "power on" into the queer villainy lightning bolt is definitely the way to go, IMO.
The I and the 0 also serve to represent, besides power flowing or not, a simplified sans-serif binary 1 & 0, with 1 in binary meaning "on" and 0 meaning "off"
Digging into the symbolism of the things that surround us is really neat!
@Anarkat oh shit, neat! be sure to take photos when you're done!
@distressedegg will do! I'd been meaning to photograph the process for the acoustic panels I'd already made, but this is a good reason to actually do it.

@distressedegg
So the symbol, in its general meaning, is intended to convey that the button it is indicating can switch the device's state between on and off. The idea that turning on the device also activates queer villainy, going by the symbolism as a whole, is a really neat idea.
