It seems like they’re trying to imply that throwing a party is an ironic response to being tired of parties, but “Malcolm” explicitly said they’re tired of hosting parties, not attending them - it doesn’t seem unreasonable to assume that having someone else take on the workload would be an acceptable change of pace?
Hosting house parties requires both planning parties, and having a party in your house. Malcolm could be tired of hosting parties because he wants to go home to the peace and quiet and read a nice book with a glass of wine and his husband’s company.
I’m not sure I get it.

Am I just overthinking this?
It’s implied that the second gnome is Malcom’s partner and they presumably live together.
So imagine telling your SO that you’re tired of parties and they throw you a party in the home you share to ostensibly help you unwind.
I for one support the gay gnomes
