You lost me. :-{

When playing with it, I found that it seems like every rotation wants its
own vertical space.

But this is only the case when the rotation is the first thing to be printed
on the line. So I changed it to:
    \
    \rotate[rotation=42]{Tekst kan ook worden geroteerd.}
    \rotate[rotation=-42]{In elke richting die je maar wilt.}

and because it is nicer to have it centered:
    \midaligned{
      \
      \rotate[rotation=42]{Tekst kan ook worden geroteerd.}
      \rotate[rotation=-42]{In elke richting die je maar wilt.}
    }
