If you're the creator: I'll (ironically) try to explain why. The text itself has almost no joke, no (strong) punchline. The biggest joke is "Dinosaurs discussing economics while rampaging", which is ridiculous(thus the joke). There are some text jokes, but they don't stand out in the dry matter that's being discussed.

Due to the denseness of the topic being discussed, it feels more akin to reading a wiki article than a comic. The text distracts from the ridiculousness (or possibly a joke about housing? I dunno?). The text becomes the focus, thus that text is being discussed rather than the joke.

/this is the end of my ted talk about jokes I actually don't know much about.

OP is probably not the author, Ryan North has been making dinosaur comics for ages now. There's over 4000 comics with the same dinosaurs discussing a lot of different things.

OP is definitely not author Ryan North who has been making the exact same comic strip with amazingly fantastic dialogue changes for years and is definitely worth checking out and hitting the “random” button a few hundred times, if one likes language, science, and comedy
